The Automation Engine server requires a folder for creating temporary files. By
default, this folder is C:\Esko\bg_data_fastserver_v100\tmp.
Because this default folder is located on the system partition, this could lead to
disk space problems. To prevent this, you can redirect the folder for these
temporary files.
You will need:
- Administrator Rights
- A large disk partition
Follow these steps to create a specific temporary folder for the Automation Engine
server:
-
In Windows Explorer, create a folder on a large disk
partition, that you want to be used for these temporary files.
-
In Control Panel, click .
-
Click the Advanced tab.
-
Click Environment Variables.
-
In the Environment Variables dialog, select the
BG_TMP variable under System
variables.
-
Click Edit.
-
Fill in the full path specification of the selected temporary folder in the
Variable Value box and click
OK.
-
Go to page. Click on the Activate Server . When
activating the server, a log window will indicate the server activation
progress.
