I have an unusual setup. I have 4 distinct Zope instances (4 seperate Data.fs'). Each Data.fs is identical - Data is kept in a RDBMS. I have a product I need to install that stores data in the ZODB. This data is stored in one folder.
Now, I *think* I can simply mount this folder in each ZODB and serve the storage through a ZEO server - however I've never done this setup, so I want to make sure this makes sense and I'm not overlooking potential problems.
This should be possible -- though I expect that you can use a single "Data.fs", serve it with ZEO and mount it in each of your Zope instances. There is little reason to have 4 identical "Data.fs" once you have decided to use ZEO anywhere.
Thanks Dieter. I agree with you. This isn't my setup, so I would like to avoid having too much of an impact on their setup, but I'll bring it up with the client. Mark
