JARVICE Drop Storage Vault
The default storage area is available as /data in your application environment and is where Jarvice applications primarily read and write data. You can transfer files in and out of vaults.nimbix.net using an sftp client.
You can upload and download your data at any time whether you are running jobs or not, via Vaults, the Secure FTP protocol (SFTP) or using our Nimbix File Manager over HTTPS.
