VisualCron is by default running as the SYSTEM account. One problem you may face is that you can't see/access your network drives. This is a restriction in Windows - that network drives are not shared between accounts.
To come around this we have added a way to control network drives from the system account. You can now map/disconnect network drives directly from VisualCron.
In the main menu, click on Manage -> Manage network drives to access the interface for mapping/disconnecting.
Map drive When mapping a drive you need to specify a Credential, a user that has access to the network drives, that is either a domain user or a user on the remote server. Specify a wanted drive name and path. Path should be entered in UNC format like this: \\servernameORip\folder\
Click on Map drive to map it. It is now controlled by VisualCron. Each time VisualCron is started it tries to re-map the drives so you can access them after a server reboot.
Unmap drive To remove a network drive you need to select it in the list and click on Unmap drive.
Refresh Reloads the list of network drives.
Reconnect If a drive has been disconnected during a VisualCron session you can reconnect it here. |
