The TMSS10SFTP program is installed by default with the TapeTrack Command Line Programs for Linux.

This program provides more automation that the native sftp command and is able to automatically select the newest file in a directory.

This comes in handy when downloading files from Iron Mountain as they only provide time-stamped files requiring the user to know the name of the file to be downloaded in advance.

Documentation for TMSS10SFTP can be found here.

The Linux sftp command does not provide an argument to specify a password. If you do not want to configure keys for the transfer, you can install the sshpass program.

[root@corp-01 ~]# yum install sshpass

Once sshpass is installed, you can call sshpass, pass the password and then pass the sftp command string as an argument.

[root@corp-01 ~]# sshpass -p "password" sftp user@server.tapetrack.com <<< "put drm.csv upload/drm.csv"
Connected to server.tapetrack.com.
sftp> put drm.csv upload/drm.csv

Windows users wanting to send files via SFTP can use the TMSS10SFTP command (installed as part of the TapeTrack Server Utilities package), or a third-party program such as WinSCP.
