Modify the ARS.CACHE file

The ars.cache file contains a list of the file systems on the server that will be used by Content Manager OnDemand for cache storage. The file systems reside in the HFS storage defined for use by UNIX System Services.

About this task

The following shows an example of an ars.cache file that specifies two cache storage file systems.
/ars1
/ars2
Note:
  1. The first line in the ars.cache file identifies the base cache storage file system. Content Manager OnDemand maintains control information in the base cache storage file system. After you define the base cache storage file system to Content Manager OnDemand, you should not add or remove it from Content Manager OnDemand or change it in any way; otherwise, the system might fail.
  2. You should modify the ars.cache file to specify information that is correct for your Content Manager OnDemand system. To modify the file, log on as the super user or as any user set up with appropriate permissions. Change to the /usr/lpp/ars/V9R5M0/config directory. Use a standard text editor to modify the file. Insert one line in the file for each file system on the server that Content Manager OnDemand can use for cache storage.
  3. For a distributed library / object server system, configure one copy of the ars.cache file on each server that is part of the Content Manager OnDemand system. Also, if you plan to run more than one instance of Content Manager OnDemand on the same system, create one copy of the ars.cache file for each instance and specify separate cache storage file systems for each instance.
