Specifying the configuration store location in Manager

You can use ArcGIS Server Manager to specify the name and location of the configuration store. To do so, follow these steps:

Note:

You cannot edit the configuration store location to be a subfolder of the existing configuration store location. For example, changing from a file path in the format \share\path1 to \share\path1\path2 is not supported.

1. Open ArcGIS Server Manager and log in. If you need help with this step, see Logging in to Manager.
2. Click Site > GIS Server > Configuration Store.
3. In the Configuration Store module, specify the name and location of the configuration store. You can navigate to a directory on disk, or type its path.

   Caution:

   In a multiple-machine deployment, the GIS server machines need to access the configuration store through a shared network directory.

4. Click Apply. This restarts ArcGIS Server.

After the restart, the name and location of the configuration store are updated, and the new file path location appears in the Configuration Store module.
