Filenames and Locations for a Combined Storage Session
If you are using a combined 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.
Broker.qs
The queue storage catalog file. This file resides in the Broker Server's data directory.
Broker.qs.log
The queue storage log file. The default name of the log file is shown here. However, the name of the log file can be specified when a Broker Server is created. It might be different on your system.
Often the log file resides in the Broker Server's data directory, but sometimes it resides in a different directory or on a different device.
Broker.qs.stor and all other *.qs.stor files for the combined storage session
The storage files associated with the queue storage system. The default name of the initial storage file is shown here. However, the name of this file can be specified when the Broker Server is created. Its name might be different on your system. Additionally, multiple storage files can be defined, so your Broker Server might have more than one.
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 the queue storage system. 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
Broker.qs
MyBroker.qs.log
D:\MyBrokerStorage
MyBroker01.qs.stor
MyBroker02.qs.stor
MyBroker03.qs.stor
You would gather all of these files into a single directory that looks like this:
E:\CopyofMyBrokerQueueStorage
awbroker.cfg
Broker.qs
Broker.qs.log
MyBrokerConfig.qs.log
MyBroker01.qs.stor
MyBroker02.qs.stor
MyBroker03.qs.stor
