How to change destination folder of minidump files?

in Database Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hello,

We have a software developed by our 3rd party vendor installed in C drive on our server. The software uses Oracle database. Minidump files are created in there from time to time in the folder where the software is installed. The file name is called either "minidump_default_pid.dmp" or "minidump_trinity_pid.dmp".

As they're eating up C drive space and causing other tasks not to be able to run, we'd like to have OS dump those files in F drive instead. We'd like to keep Trinity application installed in C drive as is. Also, for OS level, we don't want to change current configuration of the destination of dump files for other applications. We just want the minidump files to go to F drive.

Howdy, Stranger!
