To register a root on Linux

For each root you want to register, you need to complete the following steps:

  1. Log in to your Linux host via SSH and run the register_root command
  2. The first command argument is a full path to the root's base directory. The second command argument is the name of the root (case-insensitive, must be unique across all hosts).

    Command Prompt

    # Example

    johndoe@linux:~$ dtrm register_root /storage/files/Music "My Music Library"

     

    The root has been successfully registered with Disk & Tape Cloud.

    Done.

    Depending on the configuration of the system, you may need to run this command as root/administrator.
