Description |
Working Directory (.cfg files) |
This folder path is used for the following:
For SD card management functions, it sets the path for the MemoryCards sub-folder used for actions such as SD card recreation. If either of the Save Configuration File After Load or Backup Files on Send settings (see Security) are enabled, it sets the directory into which Manager saves the .cfg and .bak files if enabled. The default folder used depends on:
the version of IP Office Manager whether it was installed from the full admin suite or from admin lite. whether it was installed and run with Windows administrator rights or not.
If installed and run with Windows administrator rights:
|
File Path |
Pre-R11.1 FP2 SP3 |
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager |
Full Admin Suite |
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Admin Suite\Manager |
Admin Lite |
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Lite\Manager |
If installed and run without Windows administrator rights: To show files in the following folders, Show hidden files must be enabled in Windows file explorer.
|
File Path |
Pre-R11.1 FP2 SP3 |
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager |
Full Admin Suite |
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Admin Suite\Manager |
Admin Lite |
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office Lite\Manager |
|
Binary Directory (.bin files) |
Sets the directory in which the Manager upgrade wizard, HTTP, TFTP and BOOTP functions look for firmware files requested by phones and other hardware components. That includes .bin file, .scr files and .txt files. By default this is the Manager application's program directory.
Tip:
In the Upgrade Wizard, right-clicking and selecting Change Directory also changes this setting.
Warning:
Historically, by default the Working Directory and Binary Directory are the same. This is deprecated as it potentially allows remote TFTP/HTTP file access to the folder containing copies of configuration files. Therefore it is recommended that either of the folders is changed to an alternate location.
|
Known Units File |
Sets the file and directory into which Manager can record details of the systems it has discovered. Once a file location has been specified, a Known Units button becomes available on the discovery menu used for loading system configuration. Pressing that button displays the known units file as a list from which the required system can be selected. It also allows sorting of the list and records to be removed. |
