Define environment variable WT_WINDCHILLDS_LOGS_DIR in Windchill SysAdmin's environment, as per DS 7 docs (applies to Windchill PDMLink 11.2)

    Hi,

     

    There isn't supported method to change the location of WindchillDS logs.

    Hi Amar, thanks for your insight. There is not because it's not a PTC product; it's a Sun (now Oracle) product. Anyhow, the above does not actually work.

     

    This works (courtesy of @FMason )

    ./dsconfig set-log-publisher-prop --publisher-name "File-Based Access Logger" --set log-file:/new/path/to/logs\
    --hostname $ENV --port 4444 --bindDN "$USR" --bindPassword "$PWD" --trustAll --quiet --no-prompt

    Modify according to your needs. This only works for one set of logs (access logger). Rinse and repeat for the rest of the loggers.
