Servers

The Servers page lists the servers that can connect to the VFSs defined in Data Mover Smart. Connection occurs through specific communication protocols.

By selecting the icons next to the Server's name at the top of the page, you can display them in grid or table format.

When setting up a new server, you must choose a communication protocol and a Virtual File System (VFS). The VFS will be accessible through your chosen protocol. Access control lists (ACLs) are configured within the VFS to define user permissions. If no ACLs are configured, there are no restrictions for either internal or external DMS users, who will connect with their username and password.

The toolbar at the top of the page can be used to configure a new server, refresh the list, and browse all listed servers by protocol, enable conditions (enabled, disabled, or both), or status (online, offline, or both).

To configure a new server, click the New button and in the New server panel select the protocol. The fields applicable to the protocol will appear allowing you to enter the settings for the server.

These are the protocols supported:

• FTP

• FTPS

• HTTP

• HTTPS

• SFTP

Read the following pages for the list of fields to be filled in for each protocol.

When the server is created, a card will appear. Clicking the 3 dots button on the top right of the card, a list of options appears:

• Clone: created a new server with the same options as the cloned server.

• Navigate: opens the VFS window and shows the VFS folders and files.

• Enable / Disable: when selecting Disable, no client connection can reach the server.

• Stop: stops the server.

• Delete: removes the server from the list.
