Content Locator

Use the Content Locator to view and mount the SkillSoft content server locations used by the LMS. A mountpoint, or content server location (for example, http://xyz.com/skillsoft) is identified by its machine server name (http://xyz.com) and the company name (/skillsoft) used to install the content. The URL can contain up to 255 characters.

Note: All documented URLs use the .com domain as an example only. If your data center is located outside the United States, replace this with the correct domain for your locale. For instance, European data centers use the .eu domain. China data centers use the .cn domain.

• Click Add Content Server to add a server and specify its location before installing any content.
• Click Edit Selected URL to modify the content URL for an existing mountpoint.
• Click Delete Selected URL to remove the selected mountpoint.
• Click Make Changes Visible to Users to issue a RESET. Upon successfully completing a RESET, the changes will be made visible to users.

  Note: To verify if a RESET has successfully completed, click Reports | View BCD Command Execution Status on the menu, and then click the corresponding RESET comp… link to view the output.

If you have multiple content servers with their own unique content, you must list each content server URL.
