Description

The default install location for Vertas Infoscale Operations Manager (VIOM) cannot be changed at the time of install. However, this can be changed after VIOM has been installed and configured.

  1. Stop VIOM
    • /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin/vomadm service --stop ALL
  2. Copy the /var/opt/.VRTSsfmcs directory, while retaining permissions, to the  desired location. The example uses the desired location as /viom
    • cp -rp /var/opt/.VRTSsfmcs /viom/
  3. Unlink the old symlink. /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs symlinks to /var/opt/.VRTSsfmcs, which is a hidden directory.
    • unlink /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs
  4. Link the .VRTSsfmcs directory from the new location to /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs. The example uses /viom as the new location.
    • ln -s /viom/.VRTSsfmcs/ /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs
  5. Start VIOM
    • /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin/vomadm service --start ALL
  6. (OPTIONAL) Move or delete the original /var/opt/.VRTSsfmcs to recover the space from /var
