Storage Scope File level Collection Path
Hi,
We have two drives (C:\ and D:\ ) on our infrastructure server and we have enabled a file level collection for all the hosts.
ECC is installed in D:\ and now all the file level collection is stored in C:\.temp folder.
We have ECC6.0 in our environment.
I am looking to change this path to D drive, can anybody suggest how I should be proceeding?

The default location for the host with the FLR archiver agent to process data it collects is C:\temp. To change the location of the FLR archiver agent temp directory, add the TempScanDir key to the SGS.ini file pointing to the new directory location. This is done as follows:
Open the the SGS.ini file for editing. This file is found here:
ecc\exec\SGS600\SGS.ini
In the Global Section, add the TempScanDir key as a new entry. The following shows this key added so that the FLR archiver agent temp archive directory is relocated to the f:\flr_archiver directory:
[[Global Section]]
Vendor = EMC
Internal Name = SGS600
File Name Prefix = sgs600
when installed = xx-xx-200x
ECC Agent port = 10445
Connect retry Counter = 5
Connect retry timer = 2
Restart after Failure = yes
TempScanDir = D:\flr_archiver
I hope this information will help you. If you have any questions please let me know.

Is this a confict of database as it is trying to pull the data from the location and its not being able to locate it?
I did notice that these files turn up again in Temp folder hardly taking up any space.
Should changing the path in SGS.ini file and restarting the infrastructure host bring up storage scope?

Can I delete the contents in temp folder and again do a file level collection to this new path?

Other processes on the operating system may prevent the FLR Archiver from deleting its temporary files located in C:\temp by default. You may need to delete these files manually, if you notice a pattern of them accumulating over a period of time.
Note: C: is a bad place for anything except the OS.If a key called TempScanDir exists in SGS.INI file, the temporary files will be located in this location instead. TempScanDir is not a default key. It is a custom setting.
If you have any questions please let me know.

DCPs are currently running,shut down the Master Agent
on the host, and then end the srmconsole.exe process
through Task Manager.and then kill the process.
You actually want to kill the process named SrmServer.exe in the task manager. It is under control of the Master Agent, so that process should restart automatically.

Would a reboot be sufficient? Since it is scheduled to reboot the server today.
