Setting Up Secure File Transfer
To transfer data files to Oracle Utilities Opower, you must set up and configure a Secure Shell (SSH) tool and private/public key pair for authentication. Instructions for these tasks are provided for the operating systems and tools listed below. (Other SSH tools may also be used, but they are not covered in this documentation.)
- Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 using WinSCP
- Linux or UNIX using OpenSSH
Once you have set up SSH and generated a private/public key pair, you will transfer files to predefined directories at a secure file transfer protocol site (SFTP) set up by your Oracle Utilities Delivery Team.
Oracle Utilities also offers an optional fileset transfer manifest specification to optimize file transfer and provide troubleshooting support. See Fileset Transfer Manifest Specification for more information.
