How to Export Files

 

What to do:

As part of the work process, some of the files will only be requested occasionally. In such cases the files can be exported, i.e. the files are moved to an external vault (such as a CD-ROM).

Files cannot be exported unless an export request has been generated for the file (State field - A).

Select Manager > File Management > Files.
The FMS-Files mask is opened.
Select the file to be exported.
Select Export file from the context menu.
Select a vault of the type EXT.

The original file will be deleted after the export. The external vault may later be archived on a tape or other storage media using operating system functions.

  • Files can only be exported to vaults of the vault type "EXT".
  • The vault type ("FMS", "PUB", "EIF", etc.) of the source area and the external area must be identical.
  • Agile e6 cannot write directly to a secondary storage media (such as a tape streamer). It can only access devices that feature a file system (such as CD-ROM drives).
