The WAFS Vault is installed in C:\Program Files\GlobalSCAPE\WAFS Vault\. To specify a different location, click Browse, and select a different location.
The Working Directory and Control Vault is installed by default n C:\Vault Data\. To specify a different location, click Browse, and select a different location.
If you are installing the Vault in a cluster, be sure to specify the shared storage location that you set up for the cluster nodes. You must point each clustered Vault to the same shared storage location so that when one node fails, the other node can access the shared Vault data location.
The Vault Address is the computer name, IP address, or external domain name, and default Port is port 80. If you need to specify a different port, specify it in the Port box. (For example, if IIS is using port 80, you could use port 711.)
If you plan to set up a cohosted slave Agent, when you first connect it to the Job, you must specify the Vault name using its IP address instead of its computer name. If you specify the Vault using the computer name, you will not be able to switch the Agent's mode.
