Administering attached document libraries
If the storage backend system for attached documents is file system through persistent volumes, administrators use the Attachment Library/Folders action in applications to administer the document libraries and organize the documents into folders. Files and folders that you add are stored in the storage repository that you create for Maximo® Manage.
About this task
You can maintain the library, create folders as needed, and specify which folders are available for each application. The system includes default folders, including folders for attachments, diagrams, images, and websites. You can also create more folders or organize the folders into functional categories. Other folders might include permits, part sheets, photographs, procedures, and drawings.
To open an attachment, users must have the appropriate application for that document type that is installed on their computer. For example, you must have Microsoft Word installed to view a Word document.
