Preparing a Shared Folder for server.conf on a UNIX System

Create a shared folder on a file server.
Mount the shared folder to each machine that is to host PPM.
If you plan to host multiple PPM Server clusters under the same account on a single machine, do the following. Otherwise, proceed to step 4.
1. Using a text editor, create a file named "ppm_server_conf.env", and add to it the following text:
```
export PPM_SERVER_CONF_DIR=//<IP_Address>/<Shared_Folder>
```
2. Save the file to the <PPM_Home> directory and close the file.
In the $HOME/.profile file of the account that is to run PPM, add the following line:
```
export PPM_SERVER_CONF_DIR=<Mount_Point>/<Shared_Folder>
```
