Integration packs are add-ons for Orchestrator, a component of System Center 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1), that can help you optimize IT operations across heterogeneous environments. You can design runbooks in Orchestrator that use activities performed by other System Center components, other Microsoft products, and by third party products. The Integration Pack for FTP enables you to automate FTP operations which include creating a folder, deleting a file or folder, downloading, uploading, file and folder listing and synchronization.

Microsoft is committed to protecting your privacy, while delivering software that brings you the performance, power, and convenience you want. For more information, see the System Center Orchestrator 2012 Privacy Statement (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=216995).

Configuring the FTP Connections

A connection establishes a reusable link between Orchestrator and an FTP server. You can create as many connections as you require specifying links to multiple FTP servers. You can also create multiple connections to the same server to allow for differences in security permissions for different user accounts.

  2. On the Configurations tab, click Add to begin the connection setup. The Add Configuration dialog box appears.
