You can stick your content store wherever you want, including on a network file system.

Hi I am using share.war created after build.
Then what will be the dir.root path?
I am getting certain errors on running share.war file through eclipse in windows.
Please let me address any guide if there is?

Following error occurs when running–

If you are moving from C:/Alfresco/alf_data to E:/Alfresco/alf_data then you should follow the below steps:
<li> Move content from existing path [C:/Alfresco/alf_data] to new location [E:/Alfresco/alf_data]
<li> Edit your alfresco-global.properties and change the value for dir.root as

 dir.root=E:/Alfresco/alf_data‍
