Vault Shadow Folder Cache

[Lance.Marrano]

Is there a way to move the shadow folder cache from out of the documents and users\network service\application data\sourcegear\vault shadow folder cache folder? It isn't being cleared out (which may be another issue), and is filling up our c: partition (we have plenty of space on our other partition).

The shadow folder cache is like the client-side cache for the Vault GUI Client. It contains baselines of files that were retrieved by the Shadow Folder Service. By design, it does not clean up automatically, since the baselines may be needed for future shadow folder updates.

You can change the location of the cache by uncommenting and modifying this section of the shadow folder service web config file. Default location is C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\VaultService\VaultShadowFolder:

<!-- <add key="shadowfolder_cachepath" value="c:\Program Files\Sourcegear\Vault Shadow Folder Cache" /> -->
<add key="shadowfolder_login" value="admin" />

Be sure that the account used by the Shadow Folder Service has read/write access to the new location.
