 If `FTP_TYPE` is set to `ALL`, both ftp servers will be populated with the same files. If set to `SFTP` or `FTPES` then only the server serving that protocol will be populated with files.

 Run the script `docker-compose-setup.sh`to create a docker-compose with the desired settings. The desired setting
 in the script need to be manually adapted to for each specific simulator behavior according to the above. Check each simulator for available
 parameters.
 All simulators will be started with the generated docker-compose.yml file
