Setting a default index location

The default index location setting is only used as a default when registering new SQL cases in the CaseMap Admin Console. The default index location is linked to the SQL Server and must be a UNC path and a network location that is accessible to all users in any case using this index location. For example: \\server\indexes\my location.

If the SQL Server does not have an index location set, then new registered SQL cases will not have an index location. You will need to add the index location later.

Changing the index location will not remove any existing index data to the new location. Removing the default index location will not affect existing cases. If another users changes the index location for a selected SQL Server after the New or Register SQL Case Database dialog box displays, the new index location should be copied from the selected SQL Server.
