How to access hd0a file by PC applicatin

Leon_dev

Hello, 
I want to access (read ,write,delete) files which stored hd0a\XA1 folder via PC SDK or webservice，is it possible？Now I can only access hd0a\system\home...

Thanks.

Does anyone have such experience?

You can use class filesystem. Example of my request:

[CODE]

controller.FileSystem.GetDirectory("ctrl:(BACKUP)$/" + backupDir, "D:\\Backup", true);

[CODE/]

If you want to access root-directory, change "ctrl:(BACKUP)$/" + backupDir to "ctrl:/hda0".

This is working, but not the path2: "D:\\Backup", I hadn't figured out why, by now.

Hello derWestermann,

Can you please show screenshots or a manual reference that says that you can access path "ctrl:/hda0"?
I have not been able to find such source nor was I able to access anything below the HOME directory on my controller.

Thanks!

As I mentioned in Thread PC SDK 2021.3 FileSystem.GetDirectory

This way, it works:

[CODE]
                            controller.Backup("(BACKUP)$/" + backupDir);

                            do
                            {
                                this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
                                System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(200);
                                this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
                            } while (controller.BackupInProgress);

                            controller.FileSystem.RemoteDirectory = "/hd0a";

                            string recDir = "D:\\Backup\\" + backupDir;
                            string sendDir = "/BACKUP/" + backupDir;

                            controller.FileSystem.GetDirectory(sendDir, recDir);
[CODE/]

Thanks for your post.Do you mean that as long as I did the backup to hda0,I can access other files or folders at hda0 besides system\home?Just like an activation?
