What should be the behavior when transferring pre-existing files using Connect :Direct ?

    If the same file is transferred twice from Source (on-prem), it should generate an error stating the file already exists at the destination location (cloud).

    There shouldn't be any duplicate entries at the target location (Cloud).

    In the event that a file is already present in the destination and a file by the same name is placed at the source, what should be the behavior?

    Does it will throw an error at the destination ? or it will overwrite the file at the destination?

    Please let us know.

    Depends on the DISP paramater on the COPY step. If you put DISP=NEW then it'll throw an error if the destination file already exists whereas with DISP=RPL it'll overwrite it if it already exists.
