Following the instructions on the Wiki (here) I was able to modify the 
mangolia-enterprise-bundle-4.4.2-tomcat-bundle bundle to use a MS 
SQL-Server-based persistence manager.  But having done so I am not exactly sure 
what, if anything, I have really accomplished.  Maybe I have missed something.

My modified Magnolia instance runs fine.  It has created 72 tables in my 
SQL-Server database which appear to have data in them.  So far, so good.

But it has also written something like 600 files to the 
magnoliaAuthor/repositories/... directories.  These files have names like 
magnoliaAuthor/repositories/magnolia/repository/namespaces/ns_reg.properties 
and repositories/magnolia/workspaces/data\index/_0/_0.cfs.  Magnolia appears to 
need these files to open the repository. There is a boolean value in the 
persistenceManager configuration that tells Jackrabbit to store blobs in the 
file system (not in the database) and I was careful to set that to "false".  

As it is currently working in my installation, Jackrabbit stores a small amount 
of information in the database and a rather-larger amount on the file system -- 
and the two appear to need to be kept in sync for backups.  Since the 
SQL-Server persistence manager also seems to be slower than Derby, what good is 
it, really?  Or did I miss a step?

Thanks,
