Splitfilesystem V2
The files are stored within a filesystem in Base32 coded structures. The whole path is base 32 coded and divided into blocks.
C:\Doc_Base\FI\FZVW\O4Y\OJQX\O\GIYD\EMZQ\G4YT\GXZW\GEYW\GZJQ\G44C\2MRZ\GE2S\2NBS\GNSC\2OBR\HEYC\2YZX\GJSD\IMBT\GM3W\MZRZ\L5XG
The metadata and properties of the archived document are stored in a .info-File as JSON.

Configurationparameters within the repository.cfg file
In order to store documents on a filesystem parameters have to be defined within the repository.cfg file. In general the file is stored in the folder:
<Tomcat folder>\webapps\<name of the webapp>\WEB-INF\classes\config

In the repostory.cfg all repositories used within the archiving system are listet via the global parameter repositoryfactory.repositorylist. The repositories are separated by a comma. e.g. FI,MM,CO
All further parameters are defined individually for each content repository.
In order to store the documents on the filesystem the content repository type has to be set to splitfilesystemv2 or splitfilesystemv3.
<repoName>.contentservice.type = splitfilesystemv3
In order to store the documents in a specified place the path has to be entered; ex. C:/Doc_Base/or /opt/Doc_Base . Please be aware that the separator for the folder always is a / !
When storing the documents on a filesystem we suggest to set the parameter ContrepInPath = true
#<repoName>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv2.root = C:/Doc_Base #<repoName>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv2.ContrepInPath = true
The saphttp.security can be set to 0, 1 or 2.
0 means that no security is necessary and no certifiate is needed in order to store documents in the content repository
1 means that in order to store documents in the content repository a certificate has to be send from the SAP system to the content server. The certifiacte will be accepted automatically by the content server.
2 means that in order to store documents in the content repository a certificate has to be send from the SAP system to the content server. The certifiacte has to be accepted manually by the content server. This can be done via the transaction CSADMIN within the SAP system.
#<repoName>.saphttp.security = 1
The parameters for the accessmode in general always should be rucd (read, update, create, delete) and the authentication should be set to false with no user a/o password.
FI.accessmode = rucd FI.authentication.required = false FI.authentication.user = FI.authentication.pwdalias =
Differences SFSv2 SFSv3
Version 3 brings these changes compared to v2
the folder block size is not fixed 4 anymore. It can be chosen: 4, 8, 16. With this change the storage folder depth can be reduced.
the file name length can be limited. In v2 there was no limit.
multiple roots are supported. They are used until the free space limit is arrived. Then it choses the next in order.
if limit is -1 it is blocked for writing new documents (exception last one)
root folder selection behavior
the algorithm tries in numbers order to pick the root
it checks the available space and compares it with the given limit. Default limit is -1.
If the algorithm finds out, that a root hasn’t enough space it tries the next.
with limit -1 a drive can be blocked. The space detection is skipped. It is then used in read only state (and / or only for adding components and infos)
if the last root has -1 it will be written until IOEXCEPTION
the algorithm is triggered by:
if rootSelectionIntervalH is exceeded
if IOException had happen while IO operation
