IBM Aspera Faspex on Demand administrators have the ability to execute post-processing scripts on the server to accomplish tasks such as virus checking, moving files, and creating backups once packages arrive. Post-processing uses a set of filtering options to determine when to execute customized scripts. Aspera Faspex can execute shell scripts and Windows batch scripts, where information about the package is passed to the script by means of environment variables.
Post-processing scripts that have been activated execute automatically after the initial transfer to a default inbox. The relay of a package to a custom inbox does not trigger script execution.
To prepare a post-processing script, follow the steps directly below.
For security reasons, you may optionally disable post-processing in faspex.yml. The DisablePostProcessing setting can be found in the faspex.yml file, accessible via the following path:
/opt/aspera/faspex/config/faspex.yml
Within faspex.yml, change "DisablePostProcessing:false" to "DisablePostProcessing:true"
... DisablePostProcessing:true ...
