Testing a UNIX tertiary server

After you add a tertiary server, test it to ensure that it is set up correctly.

1. Confirm that the newly added share is accessible:
   1. Use Windows Explorer to locate the share on the tertiary server.
   2. If you are not logged onto the Windows operating system as the Araxi service user, you will be prompted for a user name and password. Type the Araxi service user name and password.
   3. Make sure that all of the subfolders in the share are visible in Windows Explorer.
   4. Create a folder in the share.
   5. Create a file in the folder that you created.
   6. Delete the file that you just created.
   7. Delete the folder that you just created.
2. Test the system:
   1. Create a job on the tertiary server, add some input files, and refine the files.
   2. Confirm that the resource forks of the files are created properly. For example, double-click a PDF file to ensure that it opens in the Adobe Acrobat software.
   3. Test as much of the system as possible by refining, outputting proofs, and plating.
3. If you intend to use the tertiary server for archiving, archive, purge, and retrieve a job from the tertiary server.
