Description
The archive working directory text box lets you specify the directory
where all archive and restore temporary files and log files are
written.
By default the archive temporary files and log files are written to
Cfusion\cfam\car\temp directory.
The save log file controls let you specify when ColdFusion writes
archive events to a log file.
ColdFusion, by default, logs events to the archive log file each time
you create or restore an archive.
The archive variable controls let you add, edit, and view archive
variables in ColdFusion. Archive variables define locations that you
commonly archive and restore on your system. The variable acts
as an alias, saving you time from typing long paths to files you want
to archive or restore.
The tabular form on the Archive Settings page identifies all the
archive variables supplied with ColdFusion plus all the user-defined
archive variables. You can click Add Variables to define new
variables or click a variable name shown in the tabular form to edit
the definition of an existing variable.
All variable definitions in the ColdFusion Administrator are defined
and edited using the Variable Definition page. In the Variable
Definition page you must provide a name for the variable definition
and a full path to the file(s) that you often archive and restore.
You can use the default settings provided on the Archive Settings
page or change them as needed. Each time you make a change on
the Archive Settings page, you need to apply that change by
clicking Submit Changes.
