The first time you start Server Manager, after creating the folder structure, it prompts you to run batch scripts to set basic permissions. Server Manager creates a new local Users group, and can run scripts that grant permissions to this Users group for access to the server folder structure and other product and server folders.

These basic folder permissions must be set in order for the product software to run properly.

SHARED Tip If you do not allow Server Manager to run these scripts on first-launch, you can run the scripts at a later time. You can also edit the files to grant personalized permissions settings to specific users and groups.

The following batch scripts set permissions.
