Workflow for reconnecting to the network


The reconnect view task of the disconnected use workflow follows the work in the view task and precedes the update view task.

When you can access the network (LAN) directly, connect using one of the following methods, depending on your hardware configuration and platform.

Hardware configuration: view on a laptop

If you use the UNIX® system or Linux®, connect the laptop to the LAN and make sure that the view is accessible to the host on which the view storage directory is located.

Hardware configuration: view on a removable storage device

UNIX® system or Linux® users, connect the removable storage device to the LAN and make sure that the view is accessible to the host on which the view storage directory is located.

Windows® system users, if you use the view on a removable storage device, connect the removable storage device to the computer on the network.

Hardware configuration: view copied to a storage device

If you copied the view onto removable media, copy files back to the original location on the network computer by doing either of the following:
  • UNIX® system or Linux® users, use a standard UNIX® or Linux copy command.
  • Windows® system users, use xcopy with the [ /D | /M ] /S /K /R options to copy files back to the original location.
