Changing the location of the work path
The work path directory is the location where a component stores internal data, such as installation logs, component details, and trace output. The shared-classes directory is also located in the work path directory and is used for deployed Java™ code. If the work path directory does not have enough capacity, redirect the directory to another file system that has enough capacity.
The work path is fixed at installation time so that WebSphere® Message
Broker can always find the information that it needs,
and always knows where to store new information.
If you need to change the location (for example, if you do not have enough capacity on the automatically-designated file system), do not change the path to the directory; instead, redirect the old work path directory to a new location.
Changing the location of the work path on Windows systems
When you change the location of the
work path, you mount the new partition at the location of the old
work path directory.

Any files that WebSphere Message
Broker creates in the
work path location are stored on the new partition.
Changing the location of the work path on Linux and UNIX systems
When you change the location of the work path, you can either mount
the new partition at the location of the old work path directory, or you can replace
the old work path directory with a soft link that points to the new work path
directory.
To change the location of the work path on UNIX and Linux:
Any files that WebSphere Message
Broker creates in the
work path location are stored in the new location.
