Changing the data directory location on Windows
This section explains how to change the location of the Qlik Replicate Data Directory. Such a procedure may need to be performed if the drive on which the current directory resides has insufficient space or if you are moving from a temporary POC setup to production, for example.
To change the location of the data directory
- Stop the Qlik Replicate UI Server and Qlik Replicate Server services.
-
Move the data directory to a new location. For example:
C:\Program Files\Attunity\Replicate\Data2
- Open the Registry and perform the following procedure:
-
Browse to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\AttunityReplicateConsole
-
Modify the ImagePath string as follows:
"C:\Program Files\Attunity\Replicate\bin\RepUiCtl.exe" -d "C:\Program Files\Attunity\Replicate\Data2" service run
-
Browse to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\QlikReplicateServer
-
Open the ImagePath string and add -d <path_for_new_data_directory> after the repctl.exe path. For example:
"C:\Program Files\Attunity\Replicate\bin\repctl.exe" -d "C:\Program Files\Attunity\Replicate\Data2" service start name=Server address=127.0.0.1 port=3552
- Start the Qlik Replicate services.
