Managing GSS Files
Securely Copying Files
The GSS supports the secure copying of files from:
• The GSS device you are currently logged in to
• Another device to the GSS device you are currently logged in to
Use the scp command to securely copy files from:
• A GSS device that you are logged in to:
scp {source_path [source_filename] user@target_host:target_path}
• Another device to a GSS device that you are logged in to:
scp {user@source_host:/source_path[source_filename] target_path}
The variables are:
• source_path—Relative directory path and file name on the source device of
the file being transferred.
• source_filename—Name of the file to be copied.
• user@target_host—Login account name and host name for the device to
which you are copying files.
• target_path—Relative directory path on the target device to which the file is
being copied.
• user@source_host— Login account name and host name for the device from
which you are copying files.
After you log in to the CLI of the GSS that you intend to copy files to or from,
enter the scp command as previously described. You may be prompted to log in
to the remote device before you can navigate to the target directory.
To securely copy files from a GSS device that you are logged in to, enter:
gssm1.example.com# scp /tmp/system.log
