	Splitfilesystem	SplitfileSystemV2	SplitfileSystemV3
available since			tia Content Server Core 3.6.0
Info- and meta files	Info: XML file Meta: JSON file	Combined in one file in JSON format	see splitfilesystemV2
Storage path for details, see Storage path	Base32 encoded and split in blocks for folder and file name. Last block of encoded component name is used as file name. Configuration parameters: `contrepinpath`, `maxfolderblocks`	see splitfilesystem	similiar to splitfilesystem, but the component name encoding differs. Configuration parameters: `contrepinpath`,`maxfolderblocks`, `maxFileNameLength`
Root folder configuration for details, see Multi root configuration (splitfilesystemv3, netappv3, icasv3)	Single-root Configuration parameters: `root`	see splitfilesystem	Multi-root Configuration parameters: `root.<n>`, `root.<n>.freespacegb`, `rootSelectionIntervalH`

Example configuration for SplitfilesystemV3 :

<repo>.contentservice.type     = splitfilesystemv3
<repo>.description             = Finance Repository
<repo>.saphttp.security        = 1
<repo>.accessmode              = rucd
<repo>.authentication.required = false
<repo>.authentication.user     = 
<repo>.authentication.pwdalias = 

#===== FI content service configuration (filesystem|splitfilesystemv2|splitfilesystemv3|azureblobstore|s3blobstore|kgsstore)
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.root.1 = C:/Doc_Base
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.root.2 = C:/Doc_Base_Disk2
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.contrepinpath = true
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.maxfolderblocks=8
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.maxFileNameLength=200
<repo>.contentservice.splitfilesystemv3.rootSelectionIntervalH=24

Folder separation is always / see Syntax rules for repository.cfg file

Example configuration for SplitfilesystemV2:

FI.contentservice.type     = splitfilesystemv2
FI.description             = Finance Repository
FI.saphttp.security        = 1
FI.accessmode              = rucd
FI.authentication.required = false
FI.authentication.user     = 
FI.authentication.pwdalias = 

#===== FI content service configuration (filesystem|splitfilesystemv2|splitfilesystemv3|azureblobstore|s3blobstore|kgsstore)
FI.contentservice.splitfilesystemv2.root = C:/Doc_Base
FI.contentservice.splitfilesystemv2.contrepinpath = true # default false

Folder separation is always / see Syntax rules for repository.cfg file
