Hello,
I need to change the local path to network path.
1 ) Can I modify the path directly, or should I verify somethings before the modifications ?
2 )Should I put the path like this
Z:\Share\CS_DR
or
\\server01\Share\CS_DR
Thanks !

Disaster Recovery Path for commserve failover
Best answer by Stuart Painter
Hi
It is recommended to use a network share on another machine as disaster recovery backup export destination.
It is best to use a UNC path and provide relevant credentials to connect and write to the share.
Please note the user account provided must also have read/write permissions to the Log Files folder.
When you configure the DR backup export destination share, it is expected that the folder will be empty, so please ensure you specify a folder with no contents.
Thanks,
Stuart

Hi Bloopa,
When setting the DR location we advise a network location that is separate to the commserve with an account that only has access to that location.
It is best to use “\\server01\Share\CS_DR”.
You can modify the path directly, I would always test the path and credentials in windows first to confirm it works you can create and delete.
