   Description of the illustration file_server_properties.png

   Field	Description
   File System Health	View the total space and percent in use. Each File Server service instance provides 500GB of storage. If the available space falls below 10%, a warning is displayed. If no space is available, a red indicator is displayed and uploading stops, although operations that do not use additional space still function.
   SFTP Server Status	View the SFTP server’s state: Running or Stopped. Click Stop to stop the server at any time. File Server stops after all current file transfers are complete. Once stopped, the button's name changes to Start. Click Start to restart the server.

3. Under General, specify a timeout and note the hostname, IP, and port settings.

   Field	Descripton
   Idle Timeout	Set the number of seconds that an SFTP client can be idle before being disconnected by File Server. The default timeout value is 240 seconds (4 minutes) and the maximum value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
   Host, IP and Port Information	Review the values for File Server's IP address, port number, and hostname. Oracle assigns these read-only values during provisioning. When you need these values You need these values to connect to File Server using the following methods: Connect by configuring an SFTP client Connect by configuring a connection that is based on the Oracle Integration FTP Adapter. Options for specifying these values When configuring these methods, you can provide either of the following values: Use the provided port and hostname. Use the provided port and IP address. Caution: If your organization has configured a disaster recovery solution, you must use the provided port and hostname, rather than the IP address and hostname. If you use the IP address, the failover for File Server occurs. However, none of your connections to File Server work after the failover.

4. Under Default Home Folder Configuration for Users, view the user home folder's base path and specify the folder's default permissions.

   Field	Description
   Folder Path	Displays the default home folder path for users. (Configure individual users on the Users page, as described in Configure Users.) You can't change the system's default home. For users, the default home path is home/users/. If you leave a user configured to use the default home (choose User Default as Home Folder Type on the Users page), the full path to the user's home is /home/users/[username]. If a user's home folder is set to Group Inherited on the Users page and the user is a member of a group, then the user will inherit the group's home folder.
   Permissions	Set default permissions for the user home folder. (Configure permissions for specific folders on the Folders page, as described in Configure Folders and View List of Files.) If you don’t assign specific permissions, these settings are used. All: Assign all permissions to the user home folder. Read: Allow files to be downloaded. Write: Allow files to be uploaded. Delete: Allow files to be deleted. List: Allow folder contents to be listed. Create Folder: Allow subfolders to be created. Rename Folder: Allow subfolders to be renamed. Delete Folder: Allow subfolders to be deleted. Propagate to subfolders: Apply the selected permissions to all subfolders. You can block this setting using the Do not inherit setting (located below the Save button) when configuring subfolder permissions from the Permissions page.

5. Under Default Home Folder Configuration for Groups, view the home folder's base path and specify the folder's default permissions.

   Field	Description
   Folder Path	Displays the base path for group home folders. (Configure individual groups on the Users page, as described in Configure Users.) You can't change the system's default home. For groups, the default home path is home/groups/. If you leave a group configured to use the default home (choose Group Default as Home Folder Type on the Users page), the full path to the group's home is /home/users/[groupname].
   Permissions	Set default permissions for the group home folder. (Configure permissions for specific folders on the Folders page, as described in Configure Folders and View List of Files.) If you don’t assign specific permissions, these settings are used. All: Assign all permissions to the user or group home folder. Read: Allow files to be downloaded. Write: Allow files to be uploaded. Delete: Allow files to be deleted. List: Allow folder contents to be listed. Create Folder: Allow subfolders to be created. Rename Folder: Allow subfolders to be renamed. Delete Folder: Allow subfolders to be deleted. Propagate to subfolders: Apply the selected permissions to all subfolders. You can block this setting using the Do not inherit setting (located below the Save button) when configuring subfolder permissions from the Permissions page.

6. Under Security, select an authentication type and change security settings as needed.
   Some fields include multiple values. To remove a value, click its x. If you remove a value, File Server doesn't support the value until you add it back. To add a value back, click within a field and select from the list that appears.

   Note:

   The SFTP client that connects to File Server must support the same configuration that is defined in this section. For example, if your FTP client doesn't support one of the Key Exchange Algorithms that File Server supports, the FTP client cannot connect to File Server.

   Field	Description
   Authentication Type	Specify whether authentication is by password, SSH key based, or either. To configure SSH key based authentication: Generate an SSH key pair. See Generate SSH Keys in PEM Format to Connect to a Public or On-Premises sFTP Server in Using the FTP Adapter with Oracle Integration 3. Note: Key based authentication supports Open SSH format only. On the Users page in File Server, select the user and upload the OpenSSH format key. On the Users page, enable the user. Use the private key to connect via the sftp client.
   Signature Algorithms	RSA algorithms rsa-sha2-256 rsa-sha2-512 ssh-rsa EdDSA algorithm ssh-ed25519 ECDSA algorithms ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 ecdsa-sha2-nistp384 ecdsa-sha2-nistp521 WARNING: If you connect to File Server and then change your algorithms, you must update the known_hosts file. If you don't, your connection to File Server closes and a warning appears. See Update the List of Supported Algorithms. See IETF RFC 4253 - SSH Transport Layer Protocol for detailed descriptions.
   Key Exchange Algorithms	File Server supports the following options: diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 See IETF RFC 4253 - SSH Transport Layer Protocol for detailed descriptions.
   Cipher Suites	File Server supports the following options: aes128-ctr aes192-ctr aes256-ctr See IETF RFC 4253 - SSH Transport Layer Protocol for detailed descriptions.
   Message Authentication Algorithms	File Server supports the following options: hmac-sha2-256 hmac-sha2-512 See IETF RFC 4253 - SSH Transport Layer Protocol for detailed descriptions.
   Compression Methods	File Server supports the following options: Zlib zlib@openssh.com No Compression See IETF RFC 4253 - SSH Transport Layer Protocol for detailed descriptions.
