8.7 Changing the Log Path for the Command Queue Service

You can change the folder location where the command queue service stores its log file.

To change the folder location:

  1. On the command queue service computer, open the Services Control Panel and stop the NetIQ AppManager Control Center Command Queue Service.

  2. Right-click the NQCQS.exe.config file under <Netiq_install_path>\AppManager\Control Center\bin and click Properties.

  3. In the Properties dialog box, remove the Read-only setting and click OK.

  4. In the NQCQS.exe.config file, under <appSettings>, change the value of the FilePath parameter to specify the new file path for log file, for example:

    <add key = "filepath" value = "e:\NetIQ_debug\CC_CQSTrace\"/>

  5. Close and save your changes to the NQCQS.exe.config file.

  6. Open a Command Prompt and change directories to \NetIQ\AppManager\Control Center\bin and run the following command:

    nqcqs.exe -i

  7. Restart NetIQ AppManager Control Center Command Queue Service.

  8. Validate the log file exists in the specified folder location.
