Configuring SFTP in Director Console API

Configuring Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) allows you to store your backups in a remote SFTP server. This gives you access to the backup files even after the API server deletes them.

Once you install Director Console using the install-dc command, you can configure SFTP next. You can also configure SFTP any time after installing Director Console using the following command in Director Console API as cmdr-admin:

sftp-configure

../_images/dc_backup_and_restore_sftp_configuration.png

SFTP Configuration

  1. Enter the SFTP server IP Address.

  2. Enter the User Name and the Password for the SFTP server.

  3. Click Submit.

    ../_images/dc_backup_and_restore_sftp_success.png

    Successful SFTP Configuration

  4. Click OK.

    Note

    Configuring SFTP in the API server updates the SFTP configuration in the Director Console UI, and vice-versa.
