How can i copy one file from one directory to another directory in JMeter?

Question

I am trying to copy one file from one directory to another directory using Telnet Server. Can we do this in Jmeter. I am using Beanshell Sampler for that. Please anyone guide me on this.

Thanks in advance, Anto

Anto, no you can't do that with Beanshell sampler. I do not know about telnet but you can do this with SSH.

You do however have the SSHSampler:

So after you've filled in connection details, there is execute tab at the bottom with command so you can write inside cp /path/to/dir1/file /path/to/dir2
