Abstract

Techniques for data transfer are described herein. In an example, a command to transfer a first data file is received at a computing device. The computing device determines if at least two processes exist, or do not exist, from among processes including: a first transfer process of the first data file; a second transfer process of a second data file; and a third process, not related to the first data-transfer or the second data-transfer. An action is selected from among a plurality of actions, wherein the selecting is based at least in part on which processes were found to exist. The plurality of actions may include: resuming the first transfer process; canceling the second transfer process and starting a new process to transfer the first data file; rejecting the command; allowing the third process to conclude and then starting the new process to transfer the first data file; and starting the new process to transfer the first data file.
