Replicator Mapped Drives

Post by Matt Wardle »

I have alot of tests that need to be replicated to diffrent servers.

However, some of these tests have mapped drives in, When i enter the name of the mapped drive to change (Eg M:\) it does not highlight this in the right panel?

Is this correct?

Thanks

Matt,

I'm not sure I understand you.
I have alot of tests that need to be replicated to diffrent servers.
What do you mean under " tests ... need to be replicated to different servers" ? Are you trying to install additional instance of Host Monitor or use similar tests but with different servers?
However, some of these tests have mapped drives in
What exactly tests which have mapped drives inside do you use?
When i enter the name of the mapped drive to change (Eg M:\) it does not highlight this in the right panel?
Where do you enter the name of the mapped drive?

Regards,
Tom

Thanks for the reply!

In responce, I have only 1 instance of HM, i have some test that are simmiler but not excaly the same that need to be replicated to other servers.

I use a UNC test to check to see if a file is available on a mapped drive. However this mapped drive is different on each server.

I enter the name of the mapped drive in the UNC box of the test, the Comment of the test and also the Link of the test.

Hope this helps

We cannot reproduce the problem.
What version of Replicator do you use?
May we see some screen shots? You may send them to support@ks-soft.net

BTW: I don't think its a good idea to use mapped drives. You will not be able to start HostMonitor as service because service does not have access to mapped drives.
I would recommend to use UNC path instead (e.g. \\servername1\sharedresourcepath\file1)

Alex
