Client Installation

To set up the client part of the client/server version, you need to carry out the
following:

Create public folders

Edit the client setup script (optional)

Install the client version on the client user’s computers

Creating Public

Folders

A public folder can contain discs and launch objects. The
administrator prepares a set of folders and then makes these available
as public folders. When a user selects a public folder, the folder will
appear in the AXIS StorPoint DISCO folder on the user’s
computer.

To create a public folder:

1. Click File | Public Folder Settings to check the settings for public folders.

2. On the Public Folders page, make sure the network path to the public folder

data is specified correctly. The location was specified during the installation.
Note that the location must be reachable from the users’ computers. If you
want to change the path, click Change.

3. Click File | New | Folder to create a new folder.

4. Specify a descriptive name, and press Enter.

5. Select the new folder and click File | Properties.

6. On the General page, enter a descriptive text in the Comment field to indicate

its content.

7. Check the Make folder public checkbox to make this folder available to the

users.

Note:

❏ As opposed to shared folders in Windows, public folders within AXIS

StorPoint DISCO will not appear in Network Neighborhood.
