Adding File Replication Targets


Prerequisites:

  • See Publishing Prerequisites for details.
  • The replication target must be added. See Adding Replication Targets for details.
  • The administrator must have at least one of the following:
    • Valid values provided by a subject matter expert for required fields.
    • Systems administrator permissions to access to the CMS file system.

Administrators can configure file replication in publishing targets. When performing replication during publish, Ingeniux CMS copies the published files using the CMS file system.

To set up (or edit) a file replication target:

  1. Expand the file replication target in the Replication tab.

  2. Configure the following fields:
    • Name: The name of the replication target.
    • Description (optional): A description of the replication target.
    • Target Location: The UNC path (e.g., \\[DSS-server]\content) or the filepath on your local drive (e.g., [Drive]:[path-to-DSS-root-folder]\content) . If you use an invalid path, an error message displays:

      Invalid Target Location Error

      Tip: The Target Location field uses the same path that the systems administrator provides when installing new DSS instances.

Next Steps: Choose one of the following.

  • Click Save in the top right corner of the publishing target view.
  • Expand the Advanced Settings area to configure impersonation settings, exempt locations, additional locations, cleanup exclusions, and custom commands in the replication target.
