CACHE_DIRECTORY

By default, AcuServer creates a local, cached copy of any COBOL object files executed by the client in order to improve performance.

Use the CACHE_DIRECTORY runtime configuration variable to specify where the local cached files should be located. If no cache directory is specified, AcuServer looks for the path specified by the following environment variables: A_TMPDIR, TMPDIR, TEMP, and TMP. The first path that it finds is used as the default cache directory.

AcuServer creates a unique filename for the cached file based on the date, time, size, and location of the file, so that as long as the object file doesn't change, the name of the cached file will remain the same.

To disable local caching, use the server configuration variable NO_LOCAL_CACHE, described in section 4.2.2.
