Changing the Link temporary directory

To change the HCL Link temporary directory, complete the following steps:

1. Create a new directory. Ensure that the location is not mounted with the noexec option. Check the output of the mount. For example, you can run the following from a command window:

    
   mkdir /opt/hiptmp
   chmod 777 /opt/hiptmp
   

2. Add a new line to hip-server-native.env to specify the new directory. For example:

   JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/hiptmp"

3. Modify the existing lines in hip-server-native.env for the long and short workers as shown here:

   
   HIP_LONG_WORKER_JVM_OPTIONS="-Xmx2g -Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/hiptmp" 
   HIP_SHORT_WORKER_JVM_OPTIONS="-Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/hiptmp"
   

4. Copy the new configuration into the HCL Link installation by executing the following from a command window:

   cp hip-server-native.env tomcat-context/install/hip-server.env

5. Restart the Link.
