You can extend access to other parts of the Orchestrator server file system by modifying the js-io-rights.conf Orchestrator configuration file. If the js-io-rights.conf file does not exist on your system, you can create it manually with the default content.

Important

Manually creating the js-io-rights.conf file is applicable only for Windows systems. The recommended way to generate the js-io-rights.conf file is to run a workflow attempting to access the Orchestrator server file system, for example, the Export logs and application settings workflow from the Troubleshooting folder in the Orchestrator workflow library.

1

Log in as an administrator to the machine on which the Orchestrator server is installed.

2

Navigate to the Orchestrator configuration directory.

Option

Action

If you installed Orchestrator with the vCenter Server installer

Go to install_directory\VMware\Infrastructure\Orchestrator\appserver\server\vmo\conf.

If you installed Orchestrator standalone

Go to install_directory\VMware\Orchestrator\appserver\server\vmo\conf.

3

Create the js-io-rights.conf file and open it in a text editor.

4

Type the default js-io-rights.conf file content.

-rwx C:/

+rwx C:/orchestrator
+rx ../../configuration/jetty/logs/
+rx ../server/vmo/log/
+rx ../bin/
+rx ./boot.properties
+rx ../server/vmo/conf/
+rx ../server/vmo/conf/plugins
+rx ../server/vmo/deploy/vmo-server/vmo-ds.xml
+rx ../../apps/
+r ../../version.txt
5

Save and close the file.

You can now set the access to the server file system for workflows and JavaScript.
