Moving Retain Data to New Disk

smkornegay

My current disk that holds my retain data and database is filling up and cannot be expanded, so I created a new larger disk that can be expanded if needed later.  I stopped retain and copied the data (took several days) from the smaller disk to the new larger disk, but the mysql.sock file won’t copy since linux says it is a “special file”.  The mysql.sock.lock file did copy.

Do i need this file? If not, can i just change the location of the data and reboot?  I have a ticket with support, but wanted a faster opinion.

Thanks in advance.

    i saw that and used part of it for the retain file locations, but this seems to be the mysql db.  i am assuming it is in the same data folder as the retain archives.  Micro Focus support isnt being much help. Just sending me tids and telling to call Microsoft for mysql issue.?????
