Changing the Address Book Data Store Location
The data store is where the server stores all the users’ contacts as vCards. The default
location is /Library/AddressBookServer/Documents/. This location is relative to the
local le system, so if the storage location is on a network volume, enter the local le-
system mount point, not a network URL.
To change the default data store:
1 In Server Admin, select a server and select Address Book.
2 Click the Settings button in the toolbar.
3 In the Data Store eld, enter the new location.
Alternatively, click the Choose button and navigate to the new location.
4 Click Save, and then restart the service.
From the command line:
1 sudo serveradmin settings addressbook:DocumentRoot = "pathname"
Replace pathname with the directory path to the location of your data store.
2 sudo serveradmin stop addressbook
3 sudo serveradmin start addressbook
Changing Address Book User Quotas
Each Address Book user has a disk quota. This quota is the total possible size of all the
user’s address books and vCards. Quotas aren’t set on a per-user basis. They are set
globally for all users. Don’t let the total of all your users’ quotas exceed the storage
capacity of the data store.
To change the user quota in Server Admin:
1 In Server Admin, select a server and select Address Book.
2 Click the Settings button in the toolbar.
3 In the User Quota eld, enter the quota amount (in megabytes).
4 Click Save, and then restart Address Book Server.
To change the user quota in Server Preferences:
1 In Server Preferences, connect to Address Book Server and choose Address Book.
2 Change the value as appropriate.
Verify that the checkbox is selected.
3 Click O, and then click On.
