Links

The Links section is the basic interface for sending and receiving files from designated partners. These partners may be another Primeur Data Mover Smart, a Primeur Data Mover, or a custom or user endpoint accessed via a specific communication protocol.

For the PR4 protocol, see the Nodes section.

This page lists configured links, which can be shown in grid or table format by selecting the icons next to the Links name at the top of the page.

When setting up a new link, you must choose the type of link among Mover Smart, Mover, Custom connection and User connection.

The toolbar at the top of the page allows you to configure a new link, refresh the list, and browse all listed links by type, protocol, enable condition (enabled, disabled, or both) and tag.

To configure a new link, click the New button and in the New link panel select the type of link:

  • Mover Smart: use this option to connect to the remote servers of another Data Mover Smart.

  • Mover: use this option to connect to Data Mover.

  • Custom Connection: select the protocol to be used for the custom connection choosing among those listed.

  • User Connection: select the protocol to be used for the connection choosing among those listed.

Options and their fields are described on the following pages.

All connections configured in this section will be listed both in the RulesAction (for example in the Remote Push action) and in the File Event ListenerListening folder (remote). See an example for the Remote Push action in the following figure:

The Test and Create buttons are available in the New link panel to test if the connection you have configured is working correctly and to confirm the creation of the connection.

When you start configuring a link, the fields you fill in are saved. In case you do not complete the configuration, a draft version is kept and proposed again when you click the New button. The fields in the draft version will be automatically loaded when accessing the page. If a draft version exists, the New button will contain a * Draft chip.

To remove the draft, click the New button and then the icon on the top right corner of the New link panel.
