IFS Applications offers two options for archiving large media items; Azure Blob Storage and Oracle File Storage. This document describes how to set up an Oracle File Storage for Large Volume Media Archiving.
This is the location where the archived files will be stored. This can either be a folder within the database server or a folder within the network. If the location is a local folder in the database server, you can simply provide the absolute path of the folder (e.g., C:\Media_Archive\Folder_Name). For a location on the network location refer to instructions under Configuring Oracle File Storage to use a Shared Folder.
In order to use a shared folder as an archive location the Oracle server must be started by a network user who has read/write access to the shared folder. This shared folder must then be entered in the Archive Location field in the Media Archives window.
Follow the steps below to define a media archive for Oracle File Storage:
- Archive Method: Oracle File Storage
- Archive Location: <Oracle Directory Location>
