Modify the Default Store Settings


Each server instance, including the administration server, has a default persistent store that requires no configuration. The default store is a file-based store that maintains its data in a group of files in a server instance's data\store\default directory. In fact, a directory for the default store is automatically created if one does not already exist. This default store is available to subsystems that do not require explicit selection of a particular store and function best by using the system's default storage mechanism.

However, you can change this store's default directory location and its Synchronous Write Policy.

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the left pane of the console, expand Environment and select Servers.
  3. On the Summary of Servers page, select the server you want to configure.
  4. On the Configuration > Services tab, update as necessary:
    1. Directory -- Specify another location on the file system where you want the default store to be kept.
    2. Synchronous Write Policy -- Select how the default store writes data to disk.

    For more information about these fields, refer to Configuration Options.

  5. Click Save.
  6. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
