Problem IC62307 | Status: Closed |
CHANGE THE LOCATION OF PDLOG RELATED DUMP FILES | |
product: | |
DB2 CONNECT / DB2CONNCT / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
Change the location of pdLog related dump files to <system app data path>\IBM\DB2\DB2COPY name for dsdriver in windows. Also the pdLog location for clidriver in Windows should be <system app data path>\IBM\DB2\CLIDRIVER\<unzipped path>. For eg: if the cli driver <unzipped path> is D:\Program Files\IBM\clidriver then the pdlog path for cli driver should be <system app data path>\IBM\DB2\CLIDRIVER\D_Program Files_IBM_clidriver Also since the clidriver can be just unzipped into some path and there is no installer to create the path required for pd/related dump files, oss has to create the directory if it is not existing. | |

The location of db2diag.log and dump files is now changed to <system app data path>\IBM\DB2\DB2COPY name for dsdriver in windows. The location for clidriver in Windows should be <system app data path>\IBM\DB2\CLIDRIVER\<unzipped path>. Also when there is no installer to create the path required for these files, the directory has to be created if it not exists. Problem was first fixed in Version 9.7 Fix Pack 1 This fix should be applied on the client. | |
