The IMAGENOWDIR6 environment variable is only required in an active-active environment. Some of the ImageNow Server resources must be moved to a shared file system, so they can be accessed by all of the different machines in an active-active environment. On Windows, this needs to be a NTFS file share accessible by UNC path. On Linux, the sharedfile system needs to be mounted locally and accessed like any other local directory. The path to that share is saved in the IMAGENOWDIR6 variable. If this environment variable is not present, its value is defaulted to the value of IMAGENOWLOCALDIR6. The environment variable is pulled on server startup from the environment.ini file located in the inserver directory on the local machine.

IMAGENOWDIR6 should specify the location of the following folders:

  • envoy
  • etc
  • form
  • job
  • learnmode
  • osm
  • script
