Re: LDM - HU

Hi Pavel, 

I do not have permissions for this step:

Creating the Data and Log Directories

The product queue MUST be on locally mounted disk and it is highly
recommended that locally stored data also be written to locally mounted
disk.

Backup is also an issue. Data is volatile, as are log files and should not
be backed up on a regular basis. In addition, by convention, the data
directory is
a subdirectory of the LDM user's home directory, which should be backed
up.

**This is when I get:

ldm% pwd
/var
ldm% mkdir data
mkdir: Failed to make directory "data"; Permission denied

I can do the symbolic links, but someone else needs to mkdirs

******

First one needs to create the directories on the non-backed up disk
partition, ie /var/data. 

       % mkdir /var/data/ldm 
       % mkdir /var/data/ldm/logs 

Use a symbolic link to a non-backed up disk partition. 

       % cd ~ldm
       % ln -s /var/data/ldm data
       % ln -s /var/data/ldm/logs logs

 
Thanks,

-Jeff
