About the File Server Management Utility
The File Server Management utility enables you to install, configure, and maintain remote sites, including their vaults and folders.
* 
A File Server is a remote or replica server for Windchill.
PTC supports only standalone servers as file servers; a file server cannot be clustered. Additionally, a file server can have only one foreground method server.
File Server Management provides the following functions:
Access to Windchill through a user interface for installing a File Server
The ability to install, register, and maintain a File Server
Automatic creation of a site, vaults, root folders, and a folder under that root folder where the content resides
Automatic creation of folders under a root folder if a folder becomes full
The ability to set a File Server to read-only for downloads
The ability to automatically detect an upgrade of the main site and trigger the upgrade of a File Server
* 
A File Server cannot be upgraded manually; the File Server upgrade happens automatically when the main site is upgraded.
Windchill site, organization, library, and product managers are able to use File Server Management. The site manager has full access. Organization, library, and product managers have limited access, which includes the following:
Access to hosts and vaults.
Access to only their organization, library, or product.
The ability to add or remove replication rules for any object within their organization, library, or product.
* 
Replication rules cannot be added or removed through File Server Management. These tasks are performed through Replication Scheduler.
The ability to schedule the replication processes just as the site manager can.
* 
Replication processes cannot be scheduled through File Server Management. These tasks are performed through Replication Scheduler.
No ability to view the schedules created by the site managers.
Read-only access to the Vault Configuration or Site Administration windows. (These provide an alternate way to install the File Server.)
