Folder in which to store the object.

Source

Use the Source list to identify the files and directories you want to deploy. The files and directories you specify appear in the Source list. To specify additional files and directories, do any of the following:

• Click Browse and use the Select Source Files dialog box to select a file or directory.
• Click Add and use the Add Source File dialog box to provide a path to a file or directory.
• To delete an entry from the list of files or directories being deployed, select the entry and click Delete .

Preserve source file paths

To preserve source file paths, check Preserve source file paths.
Checking this option means that each file or directory you are deploying has the same relative path on the destination machine as it has on the source machine. For example, when you are copying the file /etc/hosts, the hosts file is copied to the path /etc/hosts rather than being copied to a directory that you specify. Preserving source file paths is an easy way to synchronize file systems, especially when you are moving multiple files that need to reside in various locations.

Destination

For Destination, enter the path of the location to which you want to copy files or directories. You can type a path or click Browse to select a destination.
