Figure 2381: Specifying the workstation directory
The next step is to specify the workstation directory, or the so-called “WS directory”. Local and temporary files for the workstation are placed in this directory and its subdirectories. These files are executable files, local Script sequences, Report definitions, settings, temporary files and much more.
The workstation directory should be located on a local hard disk, for example C:. The default name is C:\ELSAWSyx where x is the current workstation code and y is the drive letter used for the server.
You can name the workstation directory differently if you like. However, the name must follow the so-called DOS83 convention, which means that it may not contain more than 8 characters and the only allowed characters are the letters A–Z, the numbers 0–9, –, and _.
The default name is strongly recommended.
