You can configure the iFolder client to run automatically each time you log in to your computer’s 
desktop environment. The session runs in the background as you work with files in your local 
iFolders, tracking and logging any changes you make. 

You can synchronize the files manually or at specified intervals.

iFolder 3.6 also has delta synchronization capabilities. When you make any changes to an iFolder 
file, only the deltas or changes get synchronized to the server. In other words, Delta synchronization 
only retrieves updates since the last synchronization between the iFolder client and the server. This 
increases the efficiency since it reduces the synchronization time. 

1.5.5  Enhanced Web Access

iFolder 3.6 provides an enhanced Web interface that allows you to access your iFolder files on 
remote servers. With the Web Access console, you can use a Web browser to access your files on the 
iFolder server from any workstation without the iFolder client. The Web Access interface enables 
you to perform all the operations of the iFolder client.

When compared to the previous iFolder versions, iFolder 3.6 lets you create, browse, share, upload 
and delete iFolders via the enhanced Web access console. Mobile users can also make use of this 
facility through the Web.

1.5.6  Migration

Novell iFolder 3.6 provides a simple, hassle-free migration from iFolder 2.

x

 to the iFolder client for 

Novell iFolder 3.6. The Migration Wizard provided in the iFolder 3.6 client helps you migrate the 
existing iFolder 2.

x

 data to iFolder 3.6 quickly and easily. For more information, see 

“Novell iFolder 

Migration and Upgrade” on page 33

.

1.5.7  Upgrade

Novell iFolder 3.6 provides a simple, hassle-free upgrade from iFolder 3.

x

 to the iFolder client for 

Novell iFolder 3.6. The iFolder Client Upgrade dialog box provided in the iFolder 3.6 client helps 
you upgrade the iFolder 3.

x

 to iFolder 3.6 quickly and easily. For more information, see 

Section 4.2.1, “Automatically Upgrading to iFolder 3.6,” on page 38

.

1.5.8  Default iFolder

iFolder 3.6 allows you to set up a default iFolder when you configure a new account. Whenever you 
configure a new iFolder account, iFolder automatically check for the presence of Default iFolder. If 
you have not created one, iFolder prompts you to create a Default iFolder. If it already exists, 
iFolder client prompts you to download. You are also allowed to ignore both these options. For more 
information see, 

Step 6 on page 55

 in the section 

Section 6.2, “Configuring an iFolder Account,” on 

page 51

. 

1.5.9  Synchronization Log

The synchronization log displays a log of your iFolder background activity, such as uploading and 
downloading files for different iFolders, policy violations, excluded files and non-synchronized 
files.
