4.3.14 Changing the storage directory for bookmark definition information

You can specify the storage folder for bookmark definition information in bookmarkRepository in the initialization file (config.xml).

This subsection explains how to specify the storage folder for bookmark definition information in the initialization file (config.xml). If you use logical hosts, the same storage folder must be specified for both the executing and the standby nodes.

To change the storage directory for bookmark definition information:

  1. Open the initialization file (config.xml).

    The initialization file (config.xml) is at the following location:

    installation-folder\conf\config.xml

  2. Specify the folder in which the bookmark definition information is to be stored.

    Specify the storage folder in the <bookmark> tag located immediately after the <format> tag in the <vsa> tag in the initialization file (config.xml).

    The specified storage folder is created automatically when the PFM - Web Console service starts.

    In a non-cluster system

    For example, to use c:\common\bookmarks as the storage folder, specify as follows:

    </format>
     
    <bookmark>
    <!-- The directory where bookmark repository is stored. Default : <install directory>\bookmarks -->
    <param name="bookmarkRepository" value="c:\common\bookmarks"/>
    </bookmark>
     
    </vsa>

    When a logical host is used

    Specify a folder on the shared disk as the storage for the bookmark definition information.

    For example, to use environment-directory\jp1pcWebCon\common\bookmarks as the storage folder, specify as follows:

    </format>
     
    <bookmark>
    <!-- The directory where bookmark repository is stored. Default : <install directory>\bookmarks -->
    <param name="bookmarkRepository" value="environment-directory\jp1pcWebCon\common\bookmarks"/>
    </bookmark>
     
    </vsa>
  3. Save the initialization file (config.xml) that was edited in step 2.

  4. Restart the PFM - Web Console service.

    The initialization file (config.xml) is imported when the PFM - Web Console service starts. To apply the settings changed in the initialization file, restart the PFM - Web Console service. Note that there is no need to restart the PFM - Web Console service on the standby node because it will be restarted in the event of a failover.

Note 1

Do not change any other settings in the initialization file (config.xml). If other settings are changed, PFM - Web Console might not function correctly.

Note 2

If you are running a cluster system, restart the PFM - Web Console service from the cluster software.

Note 3

If bookmark definition information already exists in a directory and you want to move the bookmark definition information to another directory, perform the following procedure:

  1. Back up and delete the bookmark definition information.

    Back up the bookmark definition information in the current storage directory and then delete the bookmark definition information from the directory. When you perform this step, make sure that you back up and then delete all the data in the old directory specified for bookmarkRepository in the initialization file (installation-folder\conf\config.xml).

  2. Move the bookmark definition information to another directory.

    Move the bookmark definition information you backed up in step 1 to the new storage directory. When you perform this step, make sure that you move all the backed up data to the new directory specified for bookmarkRepository in the initialization file (installation-folder\conf\config.xml).
