Return to: Software NewsWhat's New in Acronis Files Connect 10.7Acronis Files Connect 10.7 introduces several of new features for both Mac users and Mac administrators, such as a new Mac client application, real-time search index updates, Spotlight search for SMB file shares and more. Also, it adds support for macOS 10.15 Catalina and Windows Server 2016 Essentials. NEW MAC CLIENT APPLICATION A handy unified interface to instantly locate and access all file shares and DFS resources available on your network via both AFP and SMB. Simplest file share location * Find and open a file you're looking for with one click * Bypass the process of individually mounting file shares * Connect via both AFP and SMB * Browse a list of all network printers and quickly add them to your Mac Fast, powerful search * Use a new Mac menu bar tool or the Mac client application interface to perform Spotlight searches of SMB file shares * Search by targeting one, many, or all available file shares * Utilize advanced search query parameters, including Windows and Mac file tags SEARCH INDEXING ENHANCEMENTS Real-time granular search index updates Acronis Files Connect continuously monitors for changes in file shares and updates search index granularly, affecting only recently changed files, even when indexing remote content on other file servers or NAS. Intelligent handling of archived files Acronis Content Indexing will detect and omit file system archiving 'stub' files from search indexing, allowing Spotlight search to be enabled for a file share - even if it is managed by an HSM / file system archiving solution. File indexing exclusion rules Control your search indexes by excluding a subset of folders or file types from Acronis Content Indexing. File exclusions can be configured on a per-file-share basis, allowing content that is not necessary for indexing to be omitted. File content indexing limits With the new ability to limit file content indexing, Acronis Files Connect can be configured to only index the first few MB of each file on your server, significantly reducing the search index size when several large files are involved. Integrated Windows Search controls View the indexing status and issue a re-index command for a file share you've selected to index with Windows Search, directly from the Acronis Files Connect admin console. File shares will now be automatically configured for indexing. Extensive Mac tags support and optional support for Windows tags search Perform searches for files that have standard Windows or Mac file tags added to them. Acronis Files Connect now translates Windows tags so they can be viewed within a file's 'Get Info' details on the Mac. OTHER ENHANCEMENTS * Smart handling of Windows .URL shortcuts * DFS Connect is now included into the Base license Find out more at https://www.acronis.com/en-us/mobility/mac-windows-compatibil ...
