Note

Note!

Subfolders in this context are visual representations of areas that you have partitioned to keep your configurations. They are meant to make your configuration browser look neat and tidy. They do not represent actual subfolders.

You can enable subfolders to allow you to sort your configurations within your folders, making it easier to maintain larger implementations. To enable subfolders, you must set the property mz.subfolder.enabled to true, see /wiki/spaces/UEPE4D/pages/109838601 for more information on how to set the property.

To create subfolders, you must use the valid separators in the folder name when creating a new folder, like the folder names "sftp_coll" and "cipher_sftp_coll" shown on the image above. When subfolders are created, configurations are sorted into subfolders determined by the separator used in the folder name.
