Table to record Global Mailbox topology

You can use the sample tables to record host names or IP address, port numbers, user name, password, and other details of shared storage location, ZooKeeper, Cassandra, Sterling B2B Integrator, Global Mailbox, and IBM WebSphere MQ before starting to install and set up Global Mailbox.

Table 1. Shared storage. Sample table to record your data.
Data center Shared storage location
DC1 /shared_disk/global_mailbox
DC2 /shared_disk/global_mailbox
Important: The table is solely for reference. If required, you can add more rows and columns to include other details for the components.
Important: All nodes in a data center must have the same shared storage location. Also, when installing Global Mailbox on a Windows server, you must specify the path to shared folder in the format <drive_name>:\<shared_foldername>. For example, C:\Storage or a mapped drive or Z:\Storage. A UNC path is not supported for Windows. When mounting mapped drives, you must follow the procedure specified in How to map network shares into drives to a Windows service permanently.
Table 2. Data store (Cassandra) nodes topology. Sample table to record your data.
