BI Publisher and forms integration

Simple question
Following this document
How to Call a BI Publisher Report from Forms 12c Using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (Doc ID 2235962.1)
This document keeps referring to
a virtually mapped directory
eg the final line says
The report pdf output is placed in a virtually mapped directory and then called using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(). The URL used in the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT() call is created based on the FORMS_BI_SERVER value and the virtual mapping name of the pdf file directory location.
So Question
we can create a file in a physical folder and we can call a virtual directory - but how do we map the two to each other ?
Bi Publisher on one server - forms on another - File be created on BI publisher, virtual mapping required on BI server.
NO OHS was installed only admin server on 7001 and BI server on 7003
Any ideas Please ?
