Creating a server directory in Manager

You can use ArcGIS Server Manager to configure server directories. To do so, follow these steps.

Steps:
  1. Click the GIS Server tab and click Server Directories.
    NoteNote:

    Here, you will only see directories of one type. Use the drop-down menu at the top of the page to specify whether you want to see cache, jobs, or output directories.

  2. Click Add Directory.
  3. Type the path to the directory in the Directory text box. If you've distributed the components of ArcGIS Server over more than one machine, use a UNC path (Example: \\myServer\directory1).
  4. Use the Type drop-down list to specify the type of directory you are creating.
  5. Optionally, set the Virtual Directory, for example, http://server_name/directory. This virtual directory should point to the same disk location as the server directory. You must create the virtual directory in your Web server and link it to the physical directory on disk. The virtual directory allows Web applications to access files created by the GIS server using a URL.
  6. Set the cleaning mode and maximum file age. You can have the server delete files at regular intervals based either on the age of the file or when the file was last accessed by a client.
  7. Click OK to close the dialog box and apply the changes.
