There is a mix of levels of technology here. The Operating System (O/S) provides the filesystem. ActiveMQ runs in a JVM that runs "on top of" the O/S. Neither ActiveMQ nor the JVM are involved in choosing a filesystem - that's purely at the O/S level.
It is possible to use Samba and have ActiveMQ put its files on the Samba filesystem, although I would be very careful to test that setup thoroughly. Samba is a great filesystem for sharing files between Windows and Linux systems, but I'm not sure how solid it is for holding cricital data of a high performance application (assuming that's how ActiveMQ is intended to be used in this setup). ActiveMQ must use one of its supported stores such as KahaDB, LevelDB, or JDBC. -- View this message in context: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/How-to-configure-external-file-server-in-ACtiveMQ-tp4677464p4677473.html Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
