Trying to FTP a large image file (85GB) from one server to another
Hi,
We're trying to implement a quick and dirty disaster recovery plan until our long term mechanisms are in place.
We're attempting to FTP an image (85GB) from our datacenter to a different machine which will become the main server in the case of a disaster. We're having problems successfully completing that transfer.
We're using filezilla as the FTP server and SyncBack SE as the client. We're moving the image from a server running Windows 2003 to one running Windows 2007. The transfer will run for a few hours and then disconnect. There is nothing helpful in the logs ...
We're scratching our heads ... any ideas on this one or for a better plan altogether?

Some FTP clients and servers support setting resume points so you don't have to resend the entire file.

this software doesn't suppor that.

so where in FileZilla Server is that setting, maybe it does support it?

we replaced the client with Filezilla as well and it worked ...
