Custom Backup and ServerFiles Directories

Custom Backup Directories and Serverfiles Directory

If you host several servers. May be a good idea to have backups on seperate Drive from serverfiles

having seperate serverfiles folder will increase menu command functionality

By Default the Backup and Serverfiles will install in SSM root. To have SSM in PATH See Wiki.

To have Backup and serverfiles in separate directories/locations

Change $global:sfwd or $global:bwd to Custom Path wrap in quotes

EDIT: config-local\local_settings.ps1

run ssm command at least once to populate local_settings.ps1

If you don't see these options, Previous installs may need to rename local_settings.ps1 to download the current config

if you have an existing server folder. you want to create a folder like "servers" and put the existing server folder inside. Then change $sfwd to "G:\Servers\<my existing server folder>". If you install other servers they will fall in this "servers" folder
