NonStop SSH SFTP API Reference Manual

For transferring files via SFTP rather than FTP, the application still uses the same APILIB, which is part of the HP
NonStop™ TCP/IP applications and utilities. However, APILIB is directed to start an SFTP rather than an FTP client.
The SFTP client will support the same inter-process communication messages like FTP, mapping the programmatic
commands it to the appropriate SFTP operations.
Note: SFTP API not only enables existing applications programmed to FTP API to facilitate SFTP, it also allows
developing new applications to implement programmatic file transfers. Programs can use the documented FTP API to
facilitate either FTP or SFTP or even both.
