Create the Connection contract in output

In output, the Connection Contract defines how the data consumer connects to Data Mover to collect the files.

The following entities must already exist in Data Mover:

  • ActorVFS and virtual path: the path where files are stored in Data Mover. This is the path where the data consumer will collect the files.

  • ActorUser: the user of the data consumer having permissions to access Data Mover and collect the files.

Create the Contract Clause

To create the contract clause follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Actors section and select the Actor.

  2. Access the Connection Contracts tab and add a new Contract Clause.

  3. Create a name and description for easy reference.

  4. Assign the clause to a specific server and click Confirm. Note that each server available for the actor must have only one Connection Contract.

  1. In the Connection window, click the Add User or Group button.

  2. In the New User/Group Association window, select direct assignment, select the VFS and the VFS path - which must already exist - where the data consumer will collect the files.

  3. Select the User - which must already exist - that will access Data Mover to collect the files, then click the ADD button.

  4. Click Confirm and then Save to close the page.
