The Spaces Authorization Repository resides within the SQL Server software database. The folder location of the database files that store authorization data is selected during the Metasys server installation. The default directory location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL<version>.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA (Release 8.0 or later).
Note: The installation program places the Spaces Authorization
repository on the same computer where the ADX software resides. For a split ADX, the
directory location is on the database server on the same drive where the SQL Server
software is installed. If you want to change where the databases are loaded (for
example, E:\MyDatabases), you need to do so before you install
the ADS/ADX/OAS software. For details, refer to the Custom Locations for Metasys Server
Application and Databases section in the
Metasys Server Installation and Upgrade Guide (LIT-12012162)
