Can i move my mq folder like logs to a different drive without recreating the queue manager?? I have a c drive filling up where my mq is loaded and have a d drive empty, wondering if i can move my logs folder to that drive?? Mine is MQ 5.3 CSD 08 on widows 2003 server. |

Yes but you need to change the logs location property on the qmgr.
Preferably while it is not running...
Enjoy  |

It may only allow you to change it once the qmgr is stopped. If not it is certainly present in the registry.
Alas you can recreate the qmgr with the -lp flag
Enjoy  |

You should be able to change it via regedit:
Code: |
HKLM\SOFTWARE\IBM\MQSeries\CurrentVersion\Configuration\QueueManager\<qmgr name>\Log\LogPath
|
Backup everything, make sure the qmgr is down, backup everything, move the directory, update regedit, start the qmgr ... _________________ -wayne |

Even after stopping the queue manager didn't allow me to change the path in the queue manager property. Tried wschutz method also and that didn't help either, anyways i have recreated the queue manager with giving the log path to the new drive. Thanks for the help!!! |
