Note • The publishing point name within a server must be unique. You cannot add a publishing point that already exists in MCS database.

The publishing point FTP directory within a server must be unique.

If free space information is available at the time a publishing point is added, it must be greater than the entered Low Space Threshold.

Publishing points located within another publishing point are not supported although publishing points on the same drive are supported. For example, two publishing points with Source c:\pub1 and c:\pub2 are supported but two publishing points with Source c:\pub1 and c:\pub1\pub2 are not supported.
