File Servers - Dell OpenManage Network Manager Client Manual

File Servers

You must configure FTP and/or TFTP file
servers to push and pull configuration files
to and from devices, or to deploy firmware
updates. With this portlet you can switch
between internal and external file server
mode, and Show or Hide not applicable File
Servers depending on the file server mode
by checking/unchecking the Show All
Servers check box. When this is un-
checked, only the relevant file server(s)
appear onscreen.
Right clicking a file server, or the empty list
space lets you do the following:
New— Displays the File Server Editor screen.
Edit—Displays the selected File Server in the File Server Editor screen.
Disable— Disables the selected file server. When file servers are disabled, they are not used in a
Backup, Restore or Deploy operation. This too appears only for External File Servers.
Enable—Activates the selected file server. Again, exposed for External file Servers only.
Test—Tests the selected file server by sending and retrieving a file.
Delete— Removes the selected file server from the list. This appears for External File Servers only.
NOTE:
You can select whether Dell OpenManage Network Manager is in Internal or External File Server Mode
with the radio buttons at the top of this portlet. Checking Show All Servers displays the internal file
server.
CAUTION:
Port conflicts prevent having an external file server and internal file server operate on the same machine.
Columns in this manager identify the server, and describe whether it is enabled, and has TFTP
enabled.
