This command demonstrates uploading a local directory to a remote server using Aspera's `ascp` utility. It requires specifying the source directory, the remote user and host, and the destination directory on the server.

```bash
ascp /tmp/src my_user_name@my_demo.example.com:Upload/
```

### aspera.conf File Checksum Configuration Example

Source: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/adc/index_topic=atfcl-reporting-checksums-4

This example shows the relevant lines within the `aspera.conf` file that configure checksum reporting. It specifies 'md5' as the checksum type, enables text-based file manifests, and sets a directory for storing manifest files.

```xml
<file_system>
    ...
    <file_checksum>md5</file_checksum>
    <file_manifest>text</file_manifest>
    <file_manifest_path>C:\Users\Public\reports</file_manifest_path>
    ...
</file_system>
```
