/trans directory symbolic link

[Former Member]

Hi,

The folder /usr/sap/trans was pointing to the local files on server BW folder (/sapmnt/trans) .I create a new symbolic link to server RB using the ADDLNK command as follows.

Add Link (ADDLNK)

Type choices, press Enter.

Object . . . . . . . . . . . . . > '/QFileSvr.400/RB/sapmnt/trans'

New link . . . . . . . . . . . . > '/usr/sap/trans'

Link type . . . . . . . . . . . *SYMBOLIC *SYMBOLIC, *HARD

Now I want to revert back to my local server BW folder /sapmnt/trans what should I do...What is the command to do that?

Delete the existing link by using the RMVLNK command and then create a new link using the ADDLNK command.

Hi Milan,

The way we use is:

1) Go to /usr/sap/ on the local machine, and delete the 'trans' link.

2) Run the command: ADDLNK OBJ('/sapmnt/trans') NEWLNK('/usr/sap/trans')

That should point you to the right location.
