Browsing a Share

When you browse a share, all files and directories within that share are displayed.

Note: Shares excludes files that match the ._* pattern to hide MacOS extended attributes on file systems without native support for those attributes. File systems without native support prepend ._ to MacOS attribute names.
The search bar enables you to search for specific files or directories (for more information, see Searching Shares). When you select a file or directory in the share, you can click one of the buttons (for example, Bookmark) to act on the share.
Note: You can only see buttons for which you have authorization. If you believe that your authorizations are incorrect, contact your system administrator.
Total Count displays the total number of entries (files and directories) in the current share.
The buttons perform the following functions:
Button Function
Bookmark Create a shortcut to the selected directory. If you do not select any directory, the bookmark is the node's root directory.
Download Download the selected directory or directories using the IBM Aspera Connect Browser Plug-In. For more information, see Transferring Files.
Upload File Upload a file from another machine to this share using the Connect. For more information, see Transferring Files.
Upload Folder Upload a folder from another machine to this share using the Connect. Users do not need permission to create new folders to upload directories.
Delete Delete the selected directory or directories.
New Folder Create a new directory in the share.
Rename Rename an existing directory in the share.
