CAS (Configuration Auditing System) database instance

If you are a CAS user, configure the CAS database instance.

Field Description
Account The name of the account owner.

For an RPM installation, the default account owner is neo4j.
Directory The name of the installation directory.

You can specify multiple paths for the database instance directory. Indicate a separate path by using a pipe | with spaces.

For example:

/var/lib/neo4j | NEO4J_HOME=/var/lib/neo4j

Where:
  • /var/lib/neo4j is the instance account directory.

    In an RPM (Red Hat Package Manager) installation, an OS user neo4j and an account directory path /var/lib/neo4j, is created by default. For .tar files, use the path to the home directory of the OS user account, under which Neo4j is installed.

  • NEO4J_HOME=/var/lib/neo4j is the Neo4j installation directory.

    In an RPM installation, the NEO4J_HOME directory is /var/lib/neo4j, by default. For .tar files, use the path to the folder where Neo4j is extracted.
