Workspaces

By default, the resources that you work with in the IBM® App Connect Enterprise Toolkit are stored with their metadata in the workspace directory in your local file system. The workspace directory is created the first time that you start the IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit.

The default locations for the workspace are in the following places:

  • On Linux®, the default workspace directory is created at $HOME/IBM/ACET13/workspace, where $HOME is the home directory of the user name that is logged on.
  • On Windows, the default workspace directory is created at C:\Users\user_name\IBM\ACET13\workspace, where user_name is the user name that is logged on.

You can maintain multiple workspaces by specifying a new location at the prompt when you start your IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit session.

You can open your workspace location as described in Opening the workspace location in the IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit.

You can make backup copies of your workspaces as described in Backing up the IBM App Connect Enterprise Toolkit workspace.
