You cannot register a File Server until the installation is complete and the File Server is accessible by the master site. Other unregistered File Servers can also be listed in the table. You determine whether you want to install and register them or not.

1. In the
File Servers table, click the registration icon
.
2. Complete the following fields on the Register File Server page and then click OK:
Field | Description |
File Server Name | The name of the File Server. |
File Server URL | The gateway URL of the File Server. |
Host | The internal name of the host where the Windchill method servers are running. |
Root Folder Path | A valid root folder path under which the folders of the File Server vault resides. The root folder path is the path for the storage location on the host (under which folders are created automatically as required) where the content is stored. |
The master site system does the following:
• Creates the site and the supporting objects.
• Sends the configuration to the newly created File Server.
• Validates the mounts.
If the validation is successful, an OK message appears along with a summary. The system sends a notification about the event to the Windchill site manager.
If an error occurs, a message appears to notify you of the error. You can modify the storage location that failed validation and then try again.
