Hi,
Is it possible to change the directory where a program stores it's temporary work files?
Currently our programs, during execution, create lots of small files in the $LAWDIR/
/work directory. I'd like one specific porgram create the files in $LAWDIR/
/work/XT100. Is it possible to do such change without any program customization? If not, dos the change require lots of coding?
Kind Regards,
Pit

Yes, in most cases you can change it via workdef (for all jobs/instances for that program) or via jobdef (for just a specific instance).

If migrating/copying into a new product line, here are four GEN tables that you can modify to do mass changes to file paths:
WRKFLOPTS JOBSTEP JOBSTEPWRK JOBSTEPRPT & USERRPT
All you have to do is do a rngdbdump into a csv file, edit the csv file then upload back using import db. Here's an example:
rngdbdump -c GEN WRKFLOPTS > WORKFLOPTS.csv
After editing WORFLOPTS: importdb -uf GEN workflopts WORKFLOPTS.CSV
