Notes
The [Files] Checksum module provides a method for generating a checksum on one of more files. The Checksum type parameter allows the type of checksum to be specified, with supported types being: MD5, SHA256, and SHA512. The Manifest file name parameter should specify the fully qualified filename to create a manifest file containing the list of checksums for the list of input files from the specified File source. If no name is provided, it will automatically create one in the same location as the File source named Checksum_Manifest. The format of the manifest file can be specified as either a CSV or a SUM file.
