Remarks

If specified, the FileGroup value must match one of the NamedFileGroup values from the application definition file (ADF) Database element.

If you update a FileGroup element, updating the application deletes and re-creates the notification class to which it corresponds. This includes dropping and re-creating the SQL Server tables and indexes used by this notification class. Any data existing in the original SQL Server tables is permanently deleted.

Example

The following example shows how to have Notification Services place the notification class table in the NSData filegroup.

<FileGroup>NSData</FileGroup>
