Description:
How can the locations that the Workbench uses for the workspace and configurations files be changed?
Solution:
It is possible to change the location used for the workspace files by editing the configuration for the SCM workbench e.g.
C:\program Files\CA\SCM\configuration\config.ini
In here you will find two tokens which will currently be defined as
[email protected]/.cascm/configuration
(this stores configuration and program files used by the workbench)
[email protected]/.cascm/workspace
(this contains log files etc)
@user.home equates to the user directory in the Windows environment e.g.
C:\Documents and Settings\username for XP or C:\Users\username for Windows 7
You can edit these and set the location to a different location of your choice
(note the "/" is not the standard DOS format - this is important) e.g.
osgi.configuration.area=c:/workspaces/.cascm/configuration
osgi.instance.area.default=c:/workspaces/.cascm/workspace
