The file share provides a folder to hold map images generated by Spectrum Spatial. Create a shared folder accessible to all Spectrum nodes. The file share is not required if maps are returned from the web services as Base64-encoded images.
To create a map image file share on Unix/Linux:
-
Mount a shared folder on each operating system hosting Spectrum. The commands
below mount a drive on a Microsoft Windows Server or network drive supporting
CIFS.
mkdir /mnt/<linux mount>
mount -t cifs //<windows host>/<windows share> /mnt/<linux mount>-o username=shareuser,password=sharepassword,domain=pbi
-
Set the image share to load at startup in
/etc/fstab
.
//<windows ip address for share>/share /path_to/mount cifs username=server_user,password=secret,_netdev 0 0
