RE: TS4.0 AND DATA ON DIFF LOGICAL DRIVE

["Anshien, Joe" <Joe.Anshien@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does this work with TS2000i?  Can it be a network drive?  Can multiple
people share the same data?

Thanks

As I recall, TS4 installation gives you the opportunity to specify
where the server data is stored.  If TS4 is already installed, 
you can move the server data location.

Shutdown all TS4 components, including the server.  Edit your
c:\windows\or_serve.ini file, say with Notepad.  Change the 
location specified for BONNDATA= (or similar name if not for BMI data
service) and WORK=.  The first 3 lines of my file now read:

[Main]
WORK=e:\users\grisham\technix\invest\omega\server
BONNDATA=e:\users\grisham\technix\invest\omega\server\btc

Move the (default) directory tree c:\omega\server to the new
location you specified in c:\windows\or_serve.ini 

Crank TS4 up and you're in business.  This question has been asked
periodically on omega-list for years.  So the advice is not new.  
I can assure you it works, since I moved my TS4 data to a new disk
just last nignt.
