Configure remote data storage

[tremalnaik]

Hi,

I have a little question about the installation. If I want store all the contents & spaces into one server out of the Alfresco installaton instead "alf_data" directory, can I put the next value?

dir.root==ftp:\\200.100.0.1\alf_data‍

Thanks

No.  Dir root needs to be a file path, it is not a URL.

And there's a typo (its not ==)

You can however mount a filesystem and then specify the file path to the mounted file system.

Ok. Thank you so much!

PS: The '==' was an tying error  ops:

The default content store won't work over FTP. If you want to use remote storage then you'll need to mount the storage locally - for example, on linux you could mount remote storage over CIFS (SMB), then you'll be able to refer to that storage in the properties file, e.g.

dir.root=/mnt/alfcontent
