HA /ThingworxStorage/extensions

Hi

 

Want to deploy TWX in HA on RedHat 9

I have an NFS share for /ThingworxStorage/, accessible form 2x TWX servers.

 

In TWX Help Center 9.6 the following statement:

/ThingworxStorage/extensions folder must not be shared in the HA environment.

 

Any recommendations on how to achieve this?

I'm unable to find a setting in platform-settings.json to specify a new location for this folder "/ThingworxStorage/extensions" 

 

Thank you.

Hello,

You cannot specify a different location for the /ThingworxStorage/extensions folder in the platform-settings.json file.

On Linux, you can have nested mount points. There are various techniques to achieve this, including plain mounts, bind mounts, and symlinks (though symlinks are not mounts).
