diskarchive¶

diskarchive is a plugin for spmfilter that enables spmfilter to generate a copy for each local user on local disk. Archiving is configured globally or separated by users.
Activation of the module diskarchive is done by adding diskarchive to the modules-variable within the [global]-section in spmfilter.conf like follows:

[global]
...
modules = diskarchive
...

Configuration for diskarchive is done by adding a new section for diskarchive to the spmfilter.conf:

[diskarchive]
path = /var/diskarchive
by_user = true

option	description
path	defines the absolute path to the archive-directory. The Plugin is smart enough to generate the archive-directory if non existent, but make sure the path exists.
by_user	defines if archiving is done globally (by_user = false) or separated by users (by_user = true). Please not that "by_user = true" requires a configured lookup-backend through sql or ldap. If "by_user = true" is set but no backend is specified, archiving will be done only globally!
