Hi all,

I use MQ Series V5.2 in solario. After I create a queue manager, the data path is default created at /var/mqm/qmgrs/<queue manager name>. I would like to know if I can use another directory for the data path.?

Thank you very much.

Not that I know of.

But you can change /var/mqm to be a symbolic link to a different mount point.

If you read through the Quick Beginnings guide for your platform, it should talk about different installation configurations, including why you would or would not put /var/mqm and /var/mqm/logs on different file systems.

You can't change the directory. You'll have to do as Jeff says and trick it with the symbolic link.

Yes you can define your own data path my setting a env variable MQSPREFIX and then execute your crtmqm cmd with -ld as the log path


for eg: If you need the qmgr data path as /var/mqm/data
all you need to do is :
MQSPREFIX=/var/mqm/data
export MQSPREFIX
crtmqm -ld /var/mqm/data/log

Well, I just learned something. The MQSPREFIX is used to override the value of the DefaultPrefix in the mqs.ini file.
