Installation Step 3
Dataserver setup walkthrough
This part of the guide will explain the steps needed to successfully install Login VSI. Make sure before the installation starts that the LoginVSI4##.exe is placed on the server where the Login VSI installation will take place.
As the name suggest the VSIshare is an actual shared folder.
1. Create a folder in your preferred location (recommended is the root of C:\ or the root of a different drive).
2. Give this folder a recognisable name without spaces, something that is easily recognizable like VSIshare. 3. Right-click on the folder and click on properties. When the Folder Properties appear click on the Sharing tab. And then on Advanced Sharing.
4. When the Advanced Sharing window appears make sure to select the “Share this folder” checkbox.
5. Click on permissions and select the users that need to have permissions to the share (LoginVSI Users). As best-practice we recommend setting the group "Everyone" to Full Control.
6. Click on OK to close the permissions window and click ok to close the advanced sharing window.
7. Click on the Security tab in the Properties window and set the same permissions as the sharing permissions as before.
8. You have now configured the share.
