How To
Summary
How do I change the DB2 database file storage location path to D drive from the default C drive for an existing installation of i2 Analyze and Enterprise Insight Analysis?
Objective
Installation would like to change to use a D drive that has a large disk space rather than the default C drive location. Objective is to keep the DB2 program installation files on C drive, and the database storage files on D.
Steps
Perform the following steps:
- Drop the database. (you lose all data)
setup -t dropDatabases
setup -t dropDatabases
- Change C:\IBM\i2analyze\toolkit\configuration\environment\onyx-server\environment.properties file to use D drive.
# The root path of the database file storage.
db.database.location.dir=D:
# The root path of the database file storage.
db.database.location.dir=D:
- Check the topology.xml file to make sure and create the database.
<data-source database-id="write1" create-database="true"/>
<data-source database-id="write1" create-database="true"/>
- Run deploy.
setup -t deploy
setup -t deploy
Check the D drive to see that a new DB2 folder was created with D:\DB2\NODE0000
