5-Others informations

In this part of the documentation, we will speak about several things that are good to know while using Braincube-Transfer but not necessary to configure it.

They are different types of informations we store about them :

  1. To begin with their content are stored in a subfolder of the application installation during 24 hours (can be changed).

  2. Each 'directory' you configured has its own list of meta-data informations about the file it has sent in the last 30 days (can be hand-modified). We use those informations to build up the list shown in file-monitoring.

  3. Each 'server' you configured also got its list of file it needs to send. We also use it to know if the file in the monitoring list has already been send.

We end up with only three file status : Waiting to be send, sended to all servers, and removed (when they are not in the first list).

As we can see these informations are split along the program logic, which means that removing a 'directory' configuration will prevent the interface to show the files it has inputed before.

The same goes for the servers : when a file is taken into account by a directory-configuration, the file upload logic notify all the targeted server they need to send it. So a newly created server configuration will NOT send old files.

It also make the server an important piece of the configuration : if you remove the only one server you configured : older file will all be marked as SEND. (since no server have to send them)

It is then important not to remove a server if important file are being sent. you'll have to stop importing files first.
