Hi AG Guru,

May I request for your valuable suggestion on referring to BIN/LIB/ SCHEMA
directories from different users/machine installs of Geronimo?

We have 10 different locations on 10 different machines for 10 users where
we have installed Geronimo server for every users.

Since bin/lib and schema are common and read only folders to all the users, is it possible to keep those directory on a central server and every user machine( Geronimo install) can point to those bin/lib/schema directories?

I think it should be possible but I really am not able refer to those
bin/lib/schema directories from users install of Geronimo.

Pl suggest, your help will is highly appreciated.

Schema is thee only for your reference, it is not used by geronimo.

You can specify where the geronimo installation is by setting

-Dorg.apache.geronimo.home.dir=<location> on the server command line.

The only files that are not read only are under var, and you can specify the location of the var directory on server startup with

-Dorg.apache.geronimo.server.dir=<location> on the server command line. If this is a relative path it is resolved relative to the geronimo home dir: if absolute such resolution is not necessary.

You might be able to use something like nfs mounts to share a basic geronimo installation on one machine with all the running copies having local var directories. If there is any chance of users independently deploying apps with the same name you will want to set up secondary repositories in the local var directory. There are some instuctions here: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC20/multiple- repositories.html

hope this helps

Many thanks in advance
