Thanks. I guess I don't understand then what is the point of this Calibre customization description in the documentation?

"CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_DATABASE_PATH - allows you to specify the full path to metadata.db. Using this variable you can have metadata.db be in a location other than the library folder. Useful if your library folder is on a networked drive that does not support file locking."
