PCD.Share |
The value of this property is the path to a folder in the file system where central (that is, shared between several portal servers belonging to the same cluster) files are stored. In contrast to EP 5.0, in EP 6.0 a database is used as storage for the PCD. However, there are still files stored in this central folder for import and export, for example. In a clustered portal environment, you should define a central share location and specify its path as the value for PCD.Share. The default setting for PCD.Share is the value of PCD.Home. |
PCD.Temp |
Some PCD applications need a folder where temporary data can be stored. It must be possible to create and delete folders and files at this location. However, the folder should not be shared between nodes in a clustered environment. It is essential that the folder not be too deep in the file structure. Otherwise the maximum path length on Windows systems may be exceeded when temporary files are created. The default value for PCD.Temp is a relative path. |
