Creating attached documents directories for multiple computers and multiple Hypertext Transfer Protocol servers

The first step in configuring for attached documents is to create directories to store the files. These steps are valid for both WebSphere® and WebLogic.

Procedure

  1. Create a doclinks directory on the computer that stores the document files.

    For example:

    Operating system Doclinks directory
    Windows D:\doclinks
    UNIX /home/doclinks
  2. Create the following subdirectories under doclinks for each server:
    Operating system Doclinks directory
    Windows

    Server A: doclinks\attachments

    Server A: doclinks\default

    Server B: doclinks\diagrams

    Server C: doclinks\images

    UNIX

    Server A: /home/doclinks/attachments

    Server A: /home/doclinks/default

    Server B: /home/doclinks/diagrams

    Server C: /home/doclinks/images

  3. On the application server computer that runs the system, perform the following tasks to map the drives:
    Operating system Map drive
    Windows
    • Map drive H to drive D on server A.
    • Map drive I to drive D on server B.
    • Map drive J to drive D on server C.
    UNIX
    1. Configure /d01 to be the NFS mount point for the /home file system on server A.
    2. Configure /d02 to be the NFS mount point for the /home file system on server B.
    3. Configure /d03 to be the NFS mount point for the /home file system on server C.
