A Supervisor file is a file located in the My File System of the Supervisor’s Nav tree.
You have created a new job (one-time, or job prototype) and
have either the Niagara Network Job Builder or Niagara Network Schedule View open.
- In the top pane, Provisioning steps to run, click add (
), and select
the Copy Local File or Copy Supervisor
File step.
The system opens the File Chooser for the files available as part of the Supervisor station.
- Using the File Chooser, navigate to
the source file for the copy operation, select the file, and click OK.
If you are creating a one-time job using the Niagara
Network Job Builder, you can select either a Supervisor file or a local file on your PC. If you are
creating a job prototype using the Niagara Network Prototype
View, you can select only a Supervisor file.
The system prompts you for the target destination.
This
destination folder applies to all stations in the job. You may need
to edit the destination.
- Edit the destination system-home-relative or station-home-relative.
The destination string must always begin with the character
for either the system-home relative (!) or the
station-home relative (^). The system provides
no means to modify any files outside of the software release directory
on any target host.
The destination is changed to specify a logos subfolder under the images folder, which is
at the station root absolute (^). If a destination
folder does not already exist on the target host, the step creates
it.
- Click Run Now.
To run more efficiently, the system combines this step with
other file copy steps, install software steps, or upgrade out-of-date
software steps in the job.
