Configuration of attached documents for two computers and a local Hypertext Transfer Protocol server

When you use two computers, a local Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server, and WebSphere® Application Server on either Windows or UNIX, certain configuration specifications apply.

The following table lists the configuration specifications that apply for two computers, a local HTTP server, on Windows or UNIX.

Table 1. Two computers, local HTTP server, on Windows or UNIX
Configuration Specifications
  • You store document files on a different computer than the application server that runs the system.
  • The HTTP server is on the application server.
  • You map a drive on the application server to point to the drive on the document file server (Windows only).
  • You mount the network file system that contains the document files from the document file server computer onto the application server (UNIX only).

For Windows:

  • H is a mapped drive on the application server computer that runs the system.
  • D is a drive on the computer that stores the documents.
  • Drive letters, and file names and directory names are case-sensitive.

For UNIX:

  • /d01 is the NFS mount point on the application server for the file system /home on the document storage computer.
  • File names and directory names are case-sensitive.

The following figure shows a two-computer configuration with a local HTTP server.
