Julio

HI..

You can do NFS to server other than XI server. You need to mount the UNIX system to the XI server and use NFS to read the file from the other server. Other than this if you cant mount the file system of the other server NFS is not an option you can use to read files.

Thanks

Hello Julio,

If your lacation is as follows:


server01\path1\path2

Then put *
server01\path1\path2* as your source directory.

Important

For Linux ensure that the <sid>adm user can access the specific location.

For Windows ensure that the sapservice<sid> user can access the specific location. (Will probably have to be on the domain to achieve this).

You can try only with /wbiadm/irdoc path, if not working then try with full path as you have given.

Well you can try with giving the unix path in CC and then try. But as for as my knowledge, NFS mode only works when your file is on XI directory or if the unix dir is shared with XI then also it will work.
