We strongly recommend that you define a network drive on all TREX hosts for the central TREX data directory on the file server. Access via a network drive is much quicker than access without a drive.
The procedure below describes the required configuration steps.
Edit the configuration file TREXDaemon.ini on all TREX hosts as follows:
TREXDaemon.ini
[mappings]
map_<network_drive_letter>=\\<file_server>\<TREX_data_directory>
Define the same network drive on all TREX hosts: Use the same network drive letter and specify the same directory.
In the standard system, the system uses the SAPSystem<SAPSID> user to access the network drive.
If you want the system to use a different user for access, specify this as follows:
map_<network_drive_letter>=\\<file_server>\<TREX_data_directory>
user_<network_drive_letter>=<user_name>
password_<network_drive_letter>=<password_in_plain_text>
The changes take effect when TREX is next started.
You have created the directory mytrexdir on the file server myfileserver and shared it as mytrexshare. You want to connect the directory on all TREX hosts as the network drive T:.
Configuration in TREXDaemon.ini:
[mappings]
map_t=\\myfileserver\mytrexshare
