how to set a network path for filestream filegroup

问题

How to configure a database so that filestream data is stored on a non local path?

To enable filestream at db level I do first:

ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase ADD
FILEGROUP FileStreamFileGroup CONTAINS FILESTREAM;
GO

Then:

ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase ADD FILE (
       NAME = MyDatabaseFileStreamFile,
       FILENAME = 'c:\Test')
TO FILEGROUP FileStreamFileGroup ;
GO

Now instead of

c:\Test

I want to set a network path, for example:

\\Fileserver\Test

but this doesn't work:

ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase ADD FILE (
       NAME = MyDatabaseFileStreamFile,
       FILENAME = '\\Fileserver\Test') -- THIS IS NOT ACCEPTED
TO FILEGROUP FileStreamFileGroup ;
GO

How to achieve the desired result?

回答1:

This is not supported. Although filestream data may be accessed remotely by clients, it must be local with respect to the Sql Server instance hosting it.
