The Network Resource properties define a network connection that needs to be made for your job.
See the Network Access topic for important information on network resources.
Generally there is no need to explicitly connect network resources unless you need to assign a drive letter or specify user credentials other than those used by the job. If neither of these is the case, your tasks can refer to the resources by their UNC paths without explicitly making a connection.
Network path to connect
Specify the network path to connect to, using UNC notation. For example, specify \\prod1\data to connect to the data share on the prod1 server.
Assign drive letter
Check this option to assign a drive letter to the path you have selected. The drive letter will be mapped to the network connection for the duration of the job, allowing your tasks to refer to the resources using drive letters.
Drive letters are assigned at the computer—not user—level. This means that the drive letter you select must be available at the time the job runs. If it is not, adTempus will not be able to assign the drive letter, and the job will fail.
User Account
Specify the credentials adTempus should use when making the network connection. If the account that the job is running under has access to the resource, there is no need to specify credential here: specify credentials only if you need to user a User ID different from the one the job is using.
