SYMPTOM(s):
Using -aiarcdir in conmgr.properties file prepends the current working directory to the listed path
-aiarcdircreate is being used.
Starting the database with any method that reads the conmgr.properties file will have the archive directory placed under the current working directory
other server arguments= -aiarcdir "/usr/hisdir1" -aiarcdircreate -aiarcinterval 120
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
OpenEdge 10.1B02 32-bit Service Pack
OpenEdge 10.1B03 32-bit Service Pack
CAUSE:
A leading quote in UNIX is interpreted as a directory and thus it now sees it as a relative path resulting in expected behavior for relative path listing. The current working directory is prepended by design whenever the directory path is listed as relative.
FIX:
Quotes around the directory listing should be used in windows but not in UNIX. The correct listing would be /usr/hisdir1.
