The NFS connector in DryvIQ has specific permission-related requirements beyond that of the connector Identity. Additional configuration may be needed to allow DryvIQ to use of the NFS Connector.

When a DryvIQ Job runs, it is the DryvIQ Manager Service that is connecting to and accessing the content on the NFS platform. Therefore, the DryvIQ Manager Service needs to be running as a domain account that has the proper permissions to access the content that will be managed by DryvIQ.
Review the DryvIQ Manager/Server Installation documentation to learn about Configuring DryvIQ and pay particular attention to the Configure Windows Service section.

For proper job function, the account requires Read, Write, Update and Delete privileges. |
SQL Server (Optional)
You can optionally create the database before running the installer:
1. Log into SQL Server Management Studio.
2. Create a new database.
Set the name appropriately, ie. DryvIQV4.
Do not select an owner.
Set the recovery mode to simple.
Add the Windows Service Account User to the database.
Security > Logins > {Windows Service Account User} > properties > Server Roles > dbcreator or sysadmin
Security > Logins > {Windows Service Account User} > properties > User Mapping > DryvIQV4 > db_owner
Please see the following documentation: DryvIQ Platform | Infrastructure & Hardware Considerations
Prepare Source Environment
Create a Windows domain user account that will be used for the migration and grant main admin privileges to that user on the file server.
Ensure the account used you plan to use to create the NFS Connector has all necessary permissions to edit, copy, delete, and create files and folders. For proper job function, the account requires Read, Write, Update and Delete privileges.
If using IP, ensure that the IP is static and will not change.

/Domain Name | Enter the UNC path for the connector. The UNC path will be to a folder at least 1 level off the root of the server, for example: \\<server name>\<folder on server> You can also use the server IP address, for example: \\<ipaddress>\<folder on server> You can locate the information by going to Windows>Control Panel>System and Security>System. | Required |
User Name | Admin User Name | Enter the user name for the administrator account. This needs to be an account with authority to access the content you will to process. When creating an NFS connection, DryvIQ can use a Domain Account (DOMAIN\USER) with the proper permissions to connect. You should leave this field blank if you are using integrated authentication. |
If the User Name and Password fields are not filled in, DryvIQ will use the credentials for the account being used to run the DryvIQ Manager Windows Service Account to connect, which would also need permissions to connect to \\SERVER\SHARE. This account information was specified during installation. *When creating a NFS connection with a UNC Path containing unicode characters (i.e. \\test\あああ), User Name and Password are REQUIRED. | Optional* | ||
Password | Admin Password | Enter the password for the administrator account. You should leave this field blank if you are using integrated authentication. If the User Name and Password fields are not filled in, DryvIQ will use the credentials for the account being used to run the DryvIQ Manager Windows Service Account to connect, which would also need permissions to connect to \\SERVER\SHARE.
