Purge source files from original location

Hi,

We have been using Secure Copy for server migrations and it works great.

Is it possible to have the files purged from the source during the copy process?

    Hello,

    Thanks for posting to the Secure Copy forum. Secure Copy is not designed to make any modifications to the source data. The source data is always master during the copy process and is left untouched. The benefit of this design is that the source data is always available for reference and is also available should you need to revert back to using the source server for some reason.
