APK423S error writing to home dir
« on: April 24, 2018, 09:43:10 AM »
I am getting : APK423S AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO WRITE /home/cmodusr/.../../etc   when processing a large file.
I see that there are some "working" files being written to the home directory of the owning user's dir.

We cleaned some space and got the file processed, but I'd like to change the location where these working files are written.

Does anybody know if this is possible? If so, where would I make this config change?

thankYouVeryMuch!!

check /arstmp and /tmp and all your /arscache dirs

are you writing to archive storage or cache?

Jeff's right -- but left out an important bit.  You set the ARS_TMP parameter in the ars.cfg file.

Here's a link to the CMOD wiki about the ars.cfg file:  https://cmod.wiki/index.php?title=ars.cfg

You can also specify the 'indexing' directory for IBM CMOD arsload on the command line, with the -c option.

And lastly, I think you can even set ARS_TMP as an environment variable on the command line before executing arsload, but you'll have to verify that yourself:
Code: [Select]
export ARS_TMP=/path/to/temp/directory

Yup - I also found -c in the arsload command that will override the temp dir designation
