<h1 class="topictitle1">Supported i5/OS file
systems for Web content served by HTTP Server</h1>
<div><p>This topic provides information about supported i5/OS™ file system
for Web content.</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Information
for this topic supports the latest PTF levels for HTTP Server for i5/OS .
It is recommended that you install the latest PTFs to upgrade to the latest
level of the HTTP Server for i5/OS. Some of the topics documented here are
not available prior to this update. See <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.htm</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> for more information. </div>
<p>The HTTP Server can serve content from any of the following Integrated
File System file systems:</p>
<ul><li>root (/)</li>
<li>QSYS.LIB</li>
<li>QOpenSys</li>
<li>QDLS</li>
<li>NFS</li>
<li>QFileSvr.400</li>
<li>QNetWare</li>
<li>QNTC</li>
<li>QOPT</li>
<li>UDFS </li>
</ul>
<p>A file system provides the support that allows users and applications to
access specific segments of storage that are organized as logical units. These
logical units are files, directories, libraries, and objects.</p>
<p>Each file system has a set of logical structures and rules for interacting
with information in storage. These structures and rules may be different from
one file system to another. From the perspective of structures and rules,
the support for accessing database files and various other object types through
libraries can be thought of as a file system. Similarly, you can think of
the support for accessing documents (which are really stream files) through
the folders structure as a separate file system.</p>
<p>As you decide from which file system to serve files, you might want to
consider the following:</p>
<ul><li>Serving from the root (or /) directory gives you the fastest response
times.</li>
<li>Will the tools you use to maintain your site be compatible with the file
system you choose?</li>
<li>How easy must it be to move content from platform to platform?</li>
</ul>
<p>Remember that any individual server can serve content (CGI scripts; HTML
files; graphics such as .jpegs, GIFs, and image maps; and so on) from many
file systems at once. You can configure your server to serve content from
whatever file systems suit your needs.</p>
<p>See <a href="../ifs/rzaaxkickoff.htm">File systems in the integrated file system</a> for more information
about the integrated file system.</p>
<p>Before you start serving your content from the Integrated File System,
you must ensure that the world can access the files that you want to serve.
You must grant the QTMHHTTP user profile or *PUBLIC the following authorities
and permissions to enable Web serving with IBM<sup>®</sup> HTTP Server for iSeries™:</p>
<ul><li>QTMHHTTP or *PUBLIC must have *USE authority to all library system objects
that you intend to serve.</li>
<li>If you use any of the log directives with any Integrated File System directory
name, the directory must exist, and QTMHHTTP or *PUBLIC must have *RWX authority.</li>
<li>The QTMHHTTP user profile or *PUBLIC must be granted *RX authority to
all objects (HTML pages, graphics, and so on) that you intend to serve.</li>
<li>To use CGI programs to access any of the objects you serve, the QTMHHTP1
user profile or *PUBLIC needs the same authority to the objects as QTMHHTTP.</li>
</ul>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> When considering from which file system to serve files, keep in mind
that AllowOverride should be None for QDLS. Also, file serving and manipulation
from QSYS and other EBCDIC file systems might result in performance bottlenecks.</div>
