Step 1. Save your schedules and administrator roles

You can save the settings for your schedules and administrator roles that are configured in the current installation.

  1. Open Admin Console and click the Configuration > Script and Verify Schedules tab.

  2. Click Save or Load and choose Save All Schedules. By default, the file is saved in your web browser's download folder.

  3. Click the Administration > Administrator Roles tab.

  4. Click Save or Load and choose Save All Roles. By default, the file is saved in your web browser's download folder.

After you install FileMaker Server, you can load the schedule settings file and administrator roles settings file to instantly configure them in the new installation.

Notes 

  • Prior to version 20, the default name of the schedule settings file matches the version of FileMaker Server:

    • FileMaker Server 18: fms18_settings.settings

    • FileMaker Server 19: fms19_settings.settings

    • FileMaker Server 20: fms_settings.settings

    • FileMaker Server 21: fms_settings.settings

  • The default name of the administrator roles settings file is administrator_roles_config.json.

  • You can't specify a different name when you save the schedule settings file or administrator roles settings file in Admin Console, but you can change the filename using your operating system tools after you save the file.
