well i didnt mean i actually want to move the Members folder out of the cmf site. i just want to store that information in different location (ie a so i wouldnt have to worry about importing/exporting it during upgrades. What do u mean by "upgrade in place" Exporting/Importing of Members and acl_users seems risky to me. --- Paul Winkler <pw_lists@slinkp.com> wrote:

Something is puzzling me about the way zope is designed.
With FileStorage, or DirectoryStorage code and member content is all stored in the same place.
How does one achieve separtion of the code from the content in order to facilitate easy upgrade of code?
Basically i want to do is take the Members folder out of my CMF site and store it somewhere else, so i can do a sitewide update of the code in my CMF site by copying over a new Data.fs or a new DirectoryStorage heirarchy and the Members folder will be unaffected.
3 suggestions:
- Don't Do That. Upgrade "in place". This is usually possible depending on what your upgrade consists of.
- Export the Member folder before upgrade, then import afterward.
- Use mounted storages. Google for DBTab.
