Creating a Mount
To create a mount for a folder:
1. In the Vault Configuration window, expand a cabinet that holds the folders and then select the folder.
2. Click or select Object > Mount to open the New Mount window.
3. Complete the following fields:
Field
Description
Host
The host system on which the specified folder is mounted.
This is the system on which content file data that is assigned to this folder can be stored. If the Host Type is Cluster Node, the mounts are created for all hosts having the Host Type of Cluster Node.
Folder or Root Folder
The folder to be mounted on the specified host system.
This folder represents a physical storage location on the host. A folder must be enabled before it can be used to store content files. Before it can be enabled, a folder must be mounted.
Path or Root Path
The path to the physical storage location represented by the designated folder.
The mount path is a physical storage location relative to a host system on which Windchill method servers are running.
If a mount is directed to a nonexistent path, uploads and downloads to the mount fail. Changing the path value makes all files uploaded to the previous mount location inaccessible until they are relocated to the new path location.
4. Click OK.
