How to store a windows directory (folder) on centera?

How are you storing the files you mention? That would have a strong bearing on how directories would be stored.

Mike Horgan

Ah, I thought you might be writing code for this but wasn't sure. How about just creating a .zip of the files in your directory and pushing that up to Centera?

Here is the store code C#

static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            try

            {

                String clusterAddress = "168.159.214.20?c1profile1.pea";

               String fileName = "e:\\CAS\\ww.zip";//"e:\\CAS\\aa.txt"

                String blobString = "5000";

                int blobThreshold = Int32.Parse(blobString);

                if (blobThreshold > 0)

                    FPLogger.ConsoleMessage("\nContent less than " + blobString + " bytes will be embedded in the CDF.");

                else

                    FPLogger.ConsoleMessage("\nContent will never be embedded in the CDF.");

                FPPool.EmbeddedBlobThreshold = blobThreshold;

                 FPPool thePool = new FPPool(clusterAddress);

                // Create the clip

                FPClip clipRef = new FPClip(thePool, fileName);

                clipRef.RetentionExpiry = new DateTime(2015, 10, 10);

  // Or you could set this using a TimeSpan

  //clipRef.RetentionPeriod = new TimeSpan(500, 12, 20, 30);

            clipRef.SetAttribute("OriginalFilename", fileName);

            FPTag fileTag = clipRef.AddTag("StoreContentObject");

            fileTag.SetAttribute("filename", fileName);

                // Write the content of the file to the Centera

                FPStream streamRef = new FPStream(fileName, 16 * 1024);

                fileTag.BlobWrite(streamRef, FPMisc.OPTION_CLIENT_CALCID);

                streamRef.Close();

                long blobSize = fileTag.BlobSize;

                if (blobThreshold > 0 && blobSize < blobThreshold)

                    FPLogger.ConsoleMessage("\nContent was embedded in the CDF as size "

                        + blobSize

                        + " is less than the threshold.");

                 fileTag.Close();               

                String clipID = clipRef.Write();

                /* Write the Clip ID to the output file, "inputFileName.clipID" */

                String outFileName = fileName + ".clipID";

                FPLogger.ConsoleMessage("\nThe C-Clip ID of the content is " + clipID);

                FileStream outFile = new FileStream(outFileName, FileMode.Create);

                StreamWriter outWriter = new StreamWriter(outFile);

                outWriter.Write(clipID.ToString());

                outWriter.Close();

                outFile.Close();

                clipRef.Close();

                thePool.Close();

            }

            catch (FPLibraryException e)

            {

                ErrorInfo err = e.errorInfo;               

                 FPLogger.ConsoleMessage("\nException thrown in FP Library: Error " + err.error + " " + err.message);

            }

        }
