I've looked and it says:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Database (zodb_db) section
#
# Description:
# A database section allows the definition of custom database
# and
# storage types. More than one zodb_db section can be defined.
#
# Default: unset.
# IMPORTANT: At least one database with a mount-point of
# "/"
# must be specified for Zope to start properly.
<zodb_db main>
# Main FileStorage database
<filestorage>
path $INSTANCE/var/Data.fs
</filestorage>
mount-point /
</zodb_db>
<zodb_db temporary>
# Temporary storage database (for sessions)
<temporarystorage>
name temporary storage for sessioning
</temporarystorage>
mount-point /temp_folder
container-class Products.TemporaryFolder.TemporaryContainer
</zodb_db>
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Now please keep in mind I have not done this before!
If I want to have 2 Data.fs files, say Data1.fs, Data2.fs
it is not clear what to do. I can write:
<zodb_db main1>
# Main FileStorage database
<filestorage>
path $INSTANCE/var/Data1.fs
</filestorage>
mount-point /
</zodb_db>
<zodb_db main2>
# Main FileStorage database
<filestorage>
path $INSTANCE/var/Data2.fs
</filestorage>
mount-point /
</zodb_db>
But then what happens in the zope management interface when I
go to create a plone site? How do I associate one with Data1.fs
and the second with Data2.fs.
I did not find any definitive examples or explanation of this in
the zope documentation.
I have not tried to start zope with this config yet, but will
shortly.
thanks,
Stuart
