I have just upgraded to Vault 4.1.2 from Vault 3.5.2. One of the subtle differences between 3.5.2 and 4.1.2 is shadow folder behavior when setting up a
New Shadow Folder and the specified shadow folder target directory does not already exist. Under the new version of Vault, I get the following error if the target directory does not already exist:
Code: Select all
An error occurred adding the shadow folder: The path that you specified is not accessible from the server machine.
Though I'm sure this is the intended behavior, I much prefer how Vault 3.5.2 would prompt and ask me if I wanted to create the specified folder. Having a similar prompt in the current implementation would be ideal. Alternatively, having an option (either through the UI or a configuration file) to always create the target folder would be very helpful.
Call me lazy, but it’s just too much work to have to log on to the server and first create the target folder. I’d like Vault to do that for me!
