SSH Reference Manual

Parameter Syntax
SFTPEXCLUSIONMODEREAD <exclusion>
Arguments
<exclusion>
The file open exclusion mode for read operations. Valid values are SHARED, EXCLUSIVE and PROTECTED
Considerations
• If a file is open for write by anther process (shared or protected) and this file is to be read by SFTP or
SFTPSERV, then reading this file will only fail if parameter is set to a different value than SHARED. It can be
required to force a failure in this scenario to ensure the process writing the file closes the file before the file
transfer.
• If a get command is executed by a sftp client on the NonStop server, then the parameter must be set in the
environment of the sftp client (as PARAM for SFTP running in the Guardian environment or as environment
variable for SFTPOSS running in the OSS environment).
Default
If omitted, value SHARED will be used, which was the value used prior to adding parameter
SFTPEXCLUSIONMODEREAD.
Example
SFTPEXCLUSIONMODEREAD EXCLUSIVE
SFTPIDLETIMEOUT
Use this parameter to control how long SFTPSERV keeps running without any SFTP protocol traffic before terminating
itself.
Parameter Syntax
SFTPIDLETIMEOUT <seconds>
Arguments
<seconds>
The time in seconds the SFTPSERV waits after the last SFTP command before it stops serving the client.
Considerations
• The SFTP client will not be able to issue further SFTP commands.
Default
If omitted, there is no SFTP idle timeout. The SFTPSERV will be running until the STP client ends the session.
Example
SFTPIDLETIMEOUT 180
SFTPMAXEXTENTS
Use this parameter to specify the MAXEXTENTS value for files that are created on the NonStop system.
Parameter Syntax
SFTPMAXEXTENTS maxextents
