in addition to my other question about RB database
( https://jazz.net/forum/questions/210708/howto-configure-report-builder-to-store-the-report-definitions-in-a-db2-database-instead-of-the-jena-tdb-database )

How can I relocated the Report Builder database. It is absolutly NONSENSE to have this directory in the application program folder within the conf directory.

I have not found a hint about this.

thanks
Guido

In the <install>/server/conf/rs/app.properties file add the property "DBLocation=<absolutePathToDbFolder>"

The path is passed to the Java File type so it probably needs forward slashes.

I tested it:

- create a folder on a datadisk. E.g. E:\Jazz_Jena_DBs\RS
- stop RS profile
- move conf\DB content into new folder (remove/rename old DB folder to prevent confusion).
- edit app.properties and add following line:

#gus change
DBLocation=E\:/Jazz_JENA_DBs/RS
#gus end

- start RS

Note if the relocation is not working, a fresh DB will be configured in conf\DB. Just stop the RS profile again, remove this new DB and analyze rs.log for the error.
