Distributed File System (DFS)

Does PlanetPress Connect workflow support Distributed File System (DFS)?

Yes it does. Know, however, that the credentials are verified on each call to a resource on the remote share which, in some cases, may slow down the entire process. To avoid this constant verification, you could map a drive to the remote share before the Workflow service is launched.

If you do so, make sure the user credentials used to map the drive are the same as the ones used by Workflow to when it runs its services. To make it easier, you can simply use Workflow’s Startup process to automatically map the drive.

The output is occurring during off hours so it’s likely it will not be an issue, but good to keep in mind.
