Before using Smart Engineering Manager, you must create the following network shares. The paths to these shares are needed while running the various wizards in Smart Engineering Manager.

Site Server Share

Create a share on the Smart Engineering Manager (server) workstation to hold the site's SmartPlantV4.ini file. This share can be on the same computer as Smart Engineering Manager or on a different computer. Because you can have several sites (different SmartPlantV4.ini files) on one computer, you must create a separate share for each site.

All users must be granted read permissions on a site share (the site administrator group needs to be granted read and write permissions). You will need this share name to create the site later.

Role Template Share

Create a share on a server to hold the role templates you create for use with Smart Engineering Manager. These templates are standard sets of rights and privileges that you can grant to user groups, without having to define the rights each time. This share can be on the same server as Smart Engineering Manager or on a different server.

Only administrators responsible for the creation of sites, plants, user groups, and assigning user access require read and write permissions to this share. You must specify this location during site creation, or your role templates will not be available for selection.

Backup Location Shares

Create shares to hold the backup data for the site and for each plant structure. These shares can be on the same server as Smart Engineering Manager or on a different server. It is recommended to use a separate server for backups. Users who will be doing backups must be granted read and write permissions on these shares. You will need these share names to create the site and plants later.

You must create backup shares for each plant structure you create.
