Using NFS with Control-M/Server on UNIX (optional)

This procedure describes how to use the advanced NFS file system.

NOTE: The Control-M/Server and Control-M/Agent owner can be a local user, an LDAP user, or an NIS user, but the account home directory must be located on a local disk and not on NFS.

To use NFS with Control-M/Server on UNIX:

1. Verify that Control-M/Server is shut down.
2. Copy the ctm_server/proclog, ctm_server/proclog.save, ctm_server/status, and ctm_server/temp directories to NFS.
3. Delete the copied directories from the local disk.
4. Place a soft link on the local disk under the $HOME/ctm/ directory to point to the new NFS location for each of the copied directories.
