Nothing else. Jukka wrote about "some relatively static configuration
files", but those are stored in the database when using a database
file system.
What about you try it yourself? Install Jackrabbit, change the
configuration to use DerbyFileSystem everywhere, as in:
Repository level:
<FileSystem class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.db.DerbyFileSystem">
<param name="url" value="jdbc:derby:${rep.home}/db;create=true"/>
</FileSystem>
Workspace level:
<FileSystem class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.db.DerbyFileSystem">
<param name="url" value="jdbc:derby:${wsp.home}/db;create=true"/>
</FileSystem>
Versioning level:
<FileSystem class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.db.DerbyFileSystem">
<param name="url"
value="jdbc:derby:${rep.home}/version/db;create=true"/>
</FileSystem>
Regards,
Thomas
