Storage area properties (Configuration tab)

The storage area property sheet's Configuration tab allows you to view and modify the following values:

Online
If selected, indicates the storage area is online. You cannot save or modify content if the storage area is off line.
Allows new content
If selected, users can add new content to the storage area. To prevent new content from being added, clear the check box.

NOTE  If you reset this property, you must restart the File Store Service for the change to take effect.

Allows delete
If selected, users can delete documents containing content elements from the storage area. When deletion is allowed, Content Engine uses the specified Delete method. To reset this value so the storage area does not allow users to delete content-bearing documents, clear the check box. The storage area then acts as a permanent archive.
Indexed
This option displays whether the selected storage area is configured for content-based indexing.
Allows content cached
If selected, documents stored in the storage area are eligible for content caching. To prevent the server's cache service from copying documents from the selected storage area into cache, clear this check box.

NOTE  If you select this option after deselecting it, the Content Engine Service delays caching until after the system refreshes the storage area which take up to 30 minutes.

Delete method
Choose the method that will be used when deleting content-bearing documents from the storage area. Applies only when the Allows delete option is enabled.
