Filesystem data migration example
As an example, suppose a Link installation initially used directories on a local
filesystem for the values of /server/persistence/files,
/server/persistence/modules,
/server/persistence/libs and
/rest/persistence/files in config.yaml.
If a change in the locations of these directories is desired, then the following steps
could be used for file system design data migration:
- Start an administrator command prompt session. Execute the following commands.
- Stops the Link installaton:
- cd <Link installation directory>\DesignServer
- .\stop.bat
- Back up the directories.
- Create new directories in their new locations and populate them with the appropriate backed-up data.
- Update, as necessary, the values of server/persistence/files, /server/persistence/modules, /server/persistence/libs and /rest/persistence/files in <Link installation directory>\config\config.yaml.
- Starts Link after the configuration update.
- .\start.bat
