Configure the Map File Share

To configure the map file share (a shared image folder) to Spectrum™ Technology Platform, you first need a shared map image directory.

Note: To create a Windows map file share, see Creating a Map Image File Share on Windows.

Once a map image directory has been created, configure the map file share:

Modify the Mapping Service configuration by pointing to a shared image folder and load balance server. In the ImageCache change the Directory parameter to a common image directory, and change the AccessBaseURL parameter to the load balancer machine image URL.

If you are using a virtual machine environment, remember this IP address, as you must set the load balancer VM to this IP address.

For Windows installations:

<ImageCache>
<Directory>\\server\Share\images</Directory>	
<AccessBaseURL>http://<loadbalance_IP_address>/rest/Spatial/MappingService/
internal/imageCache
</AccessBaseURL>
	<FileExpire>30</FileExpire>
	<ScanInterval>30</ScanInterval>
</ImageCache>
