| Data site for XC Vault |
| |
Can XC Vault store its data (files) on a separate data storage site? (other than the XCN Server host) |
| |
Yes, you can configure XC Vault to store the actual files on a storage device that is separate from the actual XCN Server host. You may wish to do this in order to allow your data to be maintained within your Data Center.
Please scroll down to find the instructions pertaining to your particular operating system.
Windows:
- Create a folder on the remote device where you wish to store the XC Vault data (example 'xvault'). - Share this folder so that the XC Vault computer has "Write" access to it. - Copy the contents of c:\xcnetwork\xvault\ (your currently saved files) to this new folder. - Modify the c:\xcnetwork\properties\xcvault.properties file > change the line that starts with: XC Vault properties rootDirectory=... to: rootDirectory=//[remote computer]/[shared folder]/
Example: rootDirectory=//xcnetwork1/xvault/ for Samba shares, or simply a full path to the target directory if it's on the same computer (Ex. d:/xvault or /usr/xvault).
- Copy the c:\xcnetwork\properties\xcvault.properties file to: c:\xcnetwork\tomcat\webapps\xcnetwork\WEB-INF\classes\ You will be overwriting a file.
- restart XCN Server Start | Programs | Xchange Network Server | Stop Server and then after the DOS command windows have all closed, Start | Programs | Xchange Network Server | Start Server
- Access XC Vault via: http:// (ip address of server) /xcnetwork/login.jsp.
If XC Vault found the location then the login screen should appear. If not, a message like the following: "The specified rootDirectory: e:/ for storing and retrieving files could not be found. Please contact your systems administrator.
If the message above appears, then XC Vault could not access the specified directory, and you will need to ensure that connectivity and read/write permissions exist with that shared folder.
LINUX:
- Create a folder on the remote device where you wish to store the XC Vault data (example 'xvault').
- Share this folder so that the XC Vault computer has "Write" access to it.
- Copy the contents of /usr/xcnetwork/data/xvault (your currently saved files) to this new folder.
- Modify the /usr/xcnetwork/xcconnect/properties file > change the line that starts with: XC Vault properties rootDirectory=... to: rootDirectory=//[remote computer]/[shared folder]/
Example: rootDirectory=//xcnetwork1/xvault/ for Samba shares, or simply a full path to the target directory if it's on the same computer (Ex. d:/xvault or /usr/xvault).
- Copy the /usr/xcnetwork/xcconnect/properties/xcvault.properties file to: /usr/xcnetwork/tomcat/webapps/xcnetwork/WEB-INF/classes/ You will be overwriting a file.
- restart the XCN Server by running: service xcnetwork stop and then service xcnetwork start
- Access XC Vault via: http:// (ip address of server) /xcnetwork/login.jsp.
If XC Vault found the location then the login screen should appear. If not, a message like the following: "The specified rootDirectory: e:/ for storing and retrieving files could not be found. Please contact your systems administrator.
If the message above appears, then XC Vault could not access the specified directory, and you will need to ensure that connectivity and read/write permissions exist with that shared folder.
OS X:
- Create a folder on the remote device where you wish to store the XC Vault data (example 'xvault').
- Share this folder so that the XC Vault computer has "Write" access to it.
- Copy the contents of Applications/XchangeNetworkServer/data/xvault (your currently saved files) to this new folder.
- Modify the Applications/Xchange Network Server/conf/templates/properties/xcvault.properties file > change the line that starts with: XC Vault properties rootDirectory=... to: rootDirectory=//[remote computer]/[shared folder]/
- Copy the Applications/Xchange Network Server/conf/templates/properties/xcvault.properties file to: Applications/XchangeNetworkServer/tomcat/webapps/xcnetwork/WEB-INF/classes/ You will be overwriting a file.
- restart the XCN Server by running: Applications/Xchange Network Server/Restart Server
- Access XC Vault via: http:// (ip address of server) /xcnetwork/login.jsp.
