To ensure your SystemLink setup is scalable and fault-tolerant, connect to a remote file
share using the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol.
-
Launch NI SystemLink Server Configuration.
-
Under NI SystemLink Service Manager, select the service
you want to connect to the remote file share.
-
Under Configuration, specify the output path for the
file share you want to connect to.
-
Choose whether to run the service as a network service or as a custom user.
If the server machine has write access to the file share, choose
Network Service. If only a specific user has access,
choose Other account. Contact your IT administrator to
determine which option fits your use case.
-
Click Apply.
-
Repeat these steps for any other SystemLink service that needs access to the
remote file share.
