OmniStor Manager — OSM for short — is the back-end management console for ASUS Cloud's OmniStor enterprise file platform. While employees use OmniStor every day to upload, download, and share files, IT administrators use OSM behind the scenes to manage everything else: users, storage, security, and sharing rules.
Who is OSM for?
OSM is built for enterprise IT teams. Typical users include:
- IT department admins at your company
- System administrators (servers, domains, infrastructure)
- Security officers (audit logs, sharing oversight)
- Anyone responsible for running the OmniStor service
If you're a regular employee who just uploads files to OmniStor, you won't use OSM — and you typically won't have access to it either.
What can you do with OSM?
OSM organizes everything an admin needs into four main areas:
1. Platform Management
Get a real-time view of your platform's health: storage used, number of active users, and component status. This is also where you configure SMTP, manage storage units, and handle files flagged as infected.
2. User Management
Create, disable, and bulk-import accounts. Define permission groups (so your sales team and R&D team can have different feature sets). OSM also integrates with AD / LDAP, so employees can sign in with their existing domain credentials.
3. Logs & Reports
Find out who did what and when — who logged into OSM, which employee downloaded which files, how many new accounts were activated this month. Export everything to CSV or PDF.
4. Sharing Management
Oversee every share link your employees create (and revoke them when needed), set up company-wide announcement folders, and create project folders for specific teams.
💡 A quick tip
Not sure if your organization grants OSM access? Check with your IT department. OSM is typically protected by an IP whitelist and only accessible from specific networks.
