===== Configure Server =====

The Server toolgroup in the configure tab contains everything you need to connect to different kinds of storage.

Not only can you connect to other PMA.Cores, but also to storage on Pathomation's cloud platform [[https://my.pathomation.com/|My Pathomation]] if you have an account - FYI your first 10 GB is free! \\

You can also connect to [[https://www.pathomation.com/free-desktop-viewer-pma-start/|PMA.start]], our desktop application for local storage connection.

Here you can input:
  - Server name: this is a nickname for the Core/Drive you want to connect to
  - Server URL: this is the web address of the PMA.core you want to connect to e.g. mycore.mybusiness.com/core/
  - Username: Your username for logging into the PMA.core
  - Password: Your password for logging into the PMA.core

You can check the connection to see if all the details work.\\ If you need to be connected to a VPN to access your PMA.core, ensure that you are connected to the right VPN.

====Disconnect Server====

Clicking this button will disconnect you from all PMA.core servers you have manually connected.\\
Please note that any servers that are set to be automatically logged into will not be affected.
