# StatusFileDirectory

The location of the directory containing the status file. The value of this parameter can be an absolute or relative path to the Distributed Action Handler directory.

The status file (`status.dat`) contains information on the status of the Distributed Action Handler, such as an up-to-date record of the online/offline status of each child server. The status file has the same format as a standard configuration file, and you can edit it before Distributed Action Handler startup to set the status of some child servers to offline.
