Our dissemination system is built in such a way that we push files. When we disseminate data from our data store, we are not only pushing objects. We need permission are also checking if an existing object is not there already and if it is the case then we will delete it. The latter is, for example, necessary if a previous file was corrupted and we need to resend it. This means that we need permissions to rename and overwrite files we put into the receiving directory.
During the transmission, dissemination files have the extension '.tmp'. If the transmission is unsuccessful for whatever reason, it is repeated. The file gets renamed to its original name only after successful transmission.
