How to change the archive storage path of the publish point (IIS media services)?

By default the video stores in inetpub >> media >> archives >> ........

I want to change it to some other location on the network not within the same computer.

There are two ways to change the archive path.
The first method is global for all publishing points :

  • Run the IIS Manager;
  • Select the first node on the left panel;
  • Select Live Smooth Streaming in the features view;
  • Change the archive path settings.

The second method is for one specific publishing point :

  • Open the publishing point file (.isml) that you want change the archive path with your favorite text editor;
  • Add this line between head attribute :
    <meta name="archivePath" content="\\path\to\archive" />

The second method is useful when you create a publishing point from a script and not from IIS Media Service. By default, the archive path property contained in file override the IIS Media Service archive path configuration.

vincex86 is right without one point. I had a problem after changing archivePath. Don't forget to give "Write" permission to IIS_IUSRS user on specified folder
