    Hi, We would like to know how to force that 'DSMLIB' folder on Scalabilities will be placed on E: drive when using 'Locked by RAC'. I am going to explain you.

     

    Firstable, all the Scalabilities from customer have the 'SDMLIB' folder installed on E: drive (E:\DSMLIB\), but the machines can be normalized (update S.O.), so the software will be reinstalled. When its happens, the machine get the status 'Locked by RAC' and all the software from CA (Agent + Scalability) or not, is installed by default in C:\, but we would like to keep the DSMLIB on the same location (E:).

     

    Could be possible tell to 'Locked by RAC' in order to install the DSMLIB on a different drive?

    The customer has added addtitional inventory to all Scalabilities with the aim to use these data for that purprose. We don't know whether it could be used by mean script or something like that in order to do this action.

     

    We already have open a support case (01336162), but after investigate, they confirm that its not possible to do that.

    We open this idea in order to find another options or maybe to consider this in next releases.

     

    Thank you very much in advance!!
