JSPM Inbox path change

[former_member201054]

Hi ,

Need to change the JSPM inbox path location /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in to another directory so the .SCA files can be taken from the new place.

1)Where can we change it

Is it possible to call JSPM from command prompt with new location

>go (/new location)

so the JSPM will take the files from new loaction rather than /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in

2) then again how can we change back to original location /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in

Would appreciate valuable inputs

Thanks a ton

Hi Daniel,

JSPM detects the location of the global EPS inbox directory by reading the value of the central instance profile parameter DIR_EPS_ROOT. The location of the global EPS inbox directory is the in subdirectory of this location. On most systems, the default value of the parameter is /usr/sap/trans/EPS and the location of the global EPS inbox directory is /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in.

It is recommended that you do not change the value of the central instance profile parameter DIR_EPS_ROOT unless you are advised to do so by SAP support. Otherwise, your system may stop working because many SAP NetWeaver components are using it.

However, in your case since you want to use it temporarily, you can give the command line option while starting JSPM as follows:

go u2018-config=/jspm/inbox=<path_to_inbox>u2019

Here path to inbox is the new directory that you were talking about.

So, this is the temporary solution that you are looking for.

Nice explanation with clarity

Setting up a temporary location for inbox and calling it from command prompt..Will it not affect the running applications (or) the activity called from JSPM?

go u2018-config=/jspm/inbox=<path_to_inbox>u2019

Hi,

No, it will not affect anything else. This argument that you are including with the command is only telling your JSPM to use the following directory for this specific run. It means nothing to the rest of the system which is already following transport directory parameter that you have set in the profile file.

Don't worry, just go ahead with your tasks.

I hope this is default folder structure which are defined by SAP so you may not be able to change it.

What you can do is you can create a softlink to a the new directory and access it then break the softlink.
