Filenames and Locations for Separate Storage Sessions
If you are using separate storage session, copy the following set of files into a single directory. Run the Broker Storage Utility on this directory.
Required Files
Description
awbroker.cfg
The Broker Server's configuration file. This file resides in the Broker Server's data directory.
BrokerConfig.qs and BrokerData.qs
The queue storage catalog files. These files reside in the Broker Server's data directory.
BrokerConfig.qs.log and BrokerData.qs.log
The queue storage log files. The default names for the log files are shown here. However, the names of these log files can be specified when a Broker Server is created. The names might be different on your system.
Often the log files reside in the Broker Server's data directory, but sometimes they reside in different directories or on different devices.
BrokerConfig.qs.stor and all other *.qs.stor files for the configuration storage session
BrokerData.qs.stor and all other *.qs.stor files for the run-time storage session
The storage files associated with the queue storage system. The default names of the storage files are shown here. However, storage file names can be specified when they are created. They might be different on your system.
Sometimes storage files reside in the Broker Server's data directory, but often they exist in different directories or on different devices. Be certain to locate and copy all of the storage files associated with each storage session. If necessary, use the server_config storage with the -list option to locate them all.
Example
If your existing queue storage files were distributed as follows:
C:\webMethods Broker_directory\data\awbrokersversion_number\MyBroker
awbroker.cfg
BrokerConfig.qs
BrokerData.qs
C:\MyBrokerLogs
MyBrokerConfig.qs.log
MyBrokerData.qs.log
D:\MyBrokerStorage
MyBrokerConfig01.qs.stor
MyBrokerData01.qs.stor
MyBrokerData02.qs.stor
You would gather all of these files into a single directory that looks like this:
E:\CopyofMyBrokerQueueStorage
awbroker.cfg
BrokerConfig.qs
BrokerData.qs
MyBrokerConfig.qs.log
MyBrokerData.qs.log
MyBrokerConfig01.qs.stor
MyBrokerData01.qs.stor
MyBrokerData02.qs.stor
