Operations Folder

Default Value: Operations

Description: The name of the folder on the Provisioning Server where the XML data files storing operation details reside. This value can be a simple filename or a relative path name. However, it may not be an absolute path name.

Its value is relative to one of the following file path names:

%ETAVARHOME%
PSHOME
..

Normally, this means that the operations folder is placed along side the Data and Logs folder with a path name like the following:

C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Manager\Provisioning Server\Operations

However, to relocate this folder to another drive (so as to be able to run from a read-only drive), you should set the environment variable %ETAVARHOME% to a value such as D:\ProvisioningData before restarting the Provisioning Server service. Then the operations XML files will be placed instead into the following folder:

D:\ProvisioningData\Operations

The ETAVARHOME value can also be set as a registry value instead of an environment variable by using the eta-env utility that is installed with the provisioning server:

eta-env action=set name="ETAVARHOME" value="D:\ProvisioningData"

Important! Changes to this parameter do not take effect until the Provisioning Server service is restarted.
