Using Environments
Environment Structure
An environment groups a set of users, the repositories on which they can work, and the system repository. It is where user private workspaces, users, system data, etc. are managed.A site includes a single environment by HAS (HOPEX Application Server) instance.
For detailed information regarding HAS, see "HAS Installation guide" Installation and Deployment Technical Article.To work with several environments (for example a development environment and a production environment) you must create the additional environment on another HAS instance.
All users must have full access rights to the resources of the environments and repositories (creation and deletion of files and folders).An environment includes:
• a configuration file (MegaEnv.ini), available in the environment folder: <HAS instance repository>> Repos > <environment name>
• a system repository
• a “Db” folder for the data repositories used in this environment
The folder structure of an environment is as follows:
• Db: contains the environment data repositories
Each repository is located in a folder carrying its name. See Creating a Repository.• SysDb: the system repository
