2.7.1 Understanding Extending the Web Server Folder Path

PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture installation allows you to create multiple websites under the same domain. PeopleSoft Portal Solutions recommends that you have one website named ps to have a common location to store files for multiple sites. If you do not create such a website, you can manually create a ps folder in the web server root folder to simulate the ps website. The web server root folder is the folder that contains all your custom websites.

PeopleSoft Portal Solutions features utilize the web server folder of the peoplesoft domain. You must extend the site name ps to include the folder portal_pa. You can then copy your demo folders and files to the newly extended portal_pa web server folder.
