Configuring the Tracker Server

Open the tracker.conf file.

1	vim /etc/fdfs/tracker.conf

Modify the 11th and 23rd lines as follows:

port=22122  # Port of the tracker server (The default value is 22122. Generally, you do not need to change the value.)
base_path=/home/dfs/tracker  # Root directory for storing logs and data

Create a base data directory for the tracker server.
1
mkdir -p /home/dfs/tracker
Start the tracker server and set it to start upon system startup.
1. Start the tracker server.
  1
  service fdfs_trackerd start
2. Enable automatic startup.
  1
  chkconfig fdfs_trackerd on
- If the tracker server is started successfully for the first time, the data and logs directories are created in /home/dfs/tracker (the configured base_path).
- Stop the tracker server:
  1
  service fdfs_trackerd stop
