When you create a new catalog using the Express Server Management Console you may optionally specify a directory for the catalog. If you do not specify a directory, Express Server uses the default directory <Express Server installation directory>/ImageServer/var/catalogs/. You can change this default to a different directory by adding the DefaultCatalogDirectory element to the iserv-cfg.xml.
The DefaultCatalogDirectory
element contains the following editable attributes:
The root attribute specifies the directory.
Following is an example of the DefaultCatalogDirectory element's usage:
<DefaultCatalogDirectory root="c:\catalogs\" />
