The data repository is defined by the key `omero.data.dir' in the
main configuration file `/etc/omero/omero.properties'.
Note that OMERO 5.0.0 needs another directory, defined by the key
`omero.managed.dir'. In the default configuration file, this key
uses the value of the `omero.data.dir' key as follows:
omero.data.dir=/OMERO/
omero.managed.dir=${omero.data.dir}/ManagedRepository
but OMERO then complains that `omero.data.dir' is undefined, so you
should really specify a full path for `omero.managed.dir`, even if
the directory is located below `omero.data.dir`:
omero.data.dir=/OMERO/
omero.managed.dir=/OMERO/ManagedRepository
4. OMERO CONFIGURATION AND CONTROL
There are many parameters controlling OMERO's behavior, but most of
them may be left unmodified for the first run. The only parameters
that must be explicitly set before running OMERO are those defining
the data repository (`omero.data.dir') and the database backend
(`omero.db.*'), in `/etc/omero/omero.properties'.
