Temporary Storage Location

 

Overview

Administrators have the option of setting up a temporary storage location for the Document Store. This duplicate set of data may be used for disaster recovery. In this scenario, a combination of the database backup and this temporary file location, will enable the Administrator to keep the system almost completely up to date in the event of a disaster. This backup location can be set up in either the database or in an external storage location; it cannot be the same as the main storage location.
