And, at this point, I can't come up with anything better since I don't know what is being used. It might be upload via a web page, or ftp, or sftp, or ??? . In a general sense, I would say that the originating system needs to create a "checksum" of the data and upload both that and the data. The receiving system, linux on the VM, needs to regenerate the checksum and compare it to the transmitted checksum. If they are different, then take corrective action. I don't know what that would be. -- "Irrigation of the land with seawater desalinated by fusion power is ancient.
