Change the default Storage Directory DCM4CHEE Archive light 5.x Installation

[Carlos Uribe]

Hello,

I'm trying to setup a new server using DCM4CHEE Archive Light 5.x.

I'm following the instructions listed here:

https://github.com/dcm4che/dcm4chee-arc-light/wiki/Installation#Download-and-extract-binary-distribution-package

I've been succesful so far up to the "Import default configuration into LDAP Server"  step #8.

I do want to change my default storage directory.  It is supposed to be /var/local/dcm4chee-arc/fs1.  But I can't find that on Apache Directory Studio and when I click on the link to follow further instructions it takes me to a blank page.

Can someone please give me some more details on how to change the default storage directory?

thank you in advance

Hello,

Thank you for pointing out the issue in Wiki page. I've rectified the link to point to the correct page - https://github.com/dcm4che/dcm4chee-arc-light/wiki/Generic-Storage

Thanks for your reply.  That helped a lot but I still have one question.

If I want to change the storage from /var/local/dcm4chee-arc/fs1  to  /mnt/disk for example.  I see that the dcmURI has the value ${jboss.server.data.url}/fs1/   so I'm assuming that ${jboss.server.data.url} == /var/local/dcm4chee-arc

so will changing the whole dcmURI to /mnt/disk  do what I want to do, which is storing my files in /mnt/disk?  or I somehow have to relate it with a entry of the type ${jboss.server.data}?

Hi,

To store the files in location /mnt/disk you just need to change the volume mapping in the docker-compose.yml file
From
/var/local/dcm4chee-arc/storage:/storage
To
/mnt/disk:/storage

After changed

 in the docker-compose.yml file
From
/var/local/dcm4chee-arc/storage:/storage
To
/mnt/disk:/storage

what can i do to upgrade docker installation ?

Is there is no solution with wildfly console ?

Just change  in your docker compose.yml

    volumes:

      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

      - /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro

      - /var/local/dcm4chee-arc/wildfly:/opt/wildfly/standalone

#      - /var/local/dcm4chee-arc/storage:/storage

      - /data/storage:/storage

Stop your container

$ sudo docker-compose -p dcm4chee stop

And upgrade it

$  sudo docker-compose -p dcm4chee up -d  

You storage will change

PS : Make sur you have the acces right to /data/storage

If you are not using Docker you can change the storage from the dcm4chee-arc GUI. The other possibility is that you use a symbolic link from the original fs1 directory pointing to another route. Best regards

Hi!! Is it possible to manage multiple file systems? if yes, how should the compose look? many thanks!
