Mover Smart 🚀

Use this option to connect to the remote servers of another Data Mover Smart by entering the address and port.

The Links drop-down menu will appear, where you can select the server of the Data Mover Smart installation you want to connect to.

Once selected, additional fields will appear, depending on the selected Link.

These are the fields appearing for the SFTP link:

• Protocol: SFTP. The accepted credential types for the protocol are listed.

• Name (*), Host (*) and Port (*): these fields are automatically loaded with the content entered in the previous steps, but can be changed if needed.

• 🚀 DMZ: activate the DMZ toggle to use the DMZ. Select a specific cluster from the list. If no cluster is selected, Data Mover Smart will apply the link to all clusters by default. This will add a new entry in the DMZ → Links panel.

• Description: optionally enter a description for the remote server you are configuring.

• Tags: optionally assign or create a label to simplify the classification and identification of the link.
