Changing the replicationChanges DB location
About this task
If on-disk space issues arise, you can change the replicationChanges
database (DB) location. The replication changelog database can live outside <server-root>
and be placed in another location on the file system. To do this, specify the absolute path of the replication changelog directory.
Steps

To change the database location for the replication changelog, use the
dsconfig
tool.By default, the database location is at
<server-root>/changelogDb
.Example:
The following command sets the replication Changelog Backend to
<server-root>/data/directory/changelogDb
.Remember to include the LDAP connection parameters, such as host name, port, bindDN, and bindPassword.
$ bin/dsconfig set-replication-server-prop \ --provider-name "Multimaster Synchronization" \ --set "replication-db-directory:/data/directory/changelogDb" \ --bindDN "cn=Directory Manager" --bindPassword secret --no-prompt
-
Stop the server.
Example:
$ bin/stop-server
-
Move the DB files.

$ mv changelogDb /data/directory
-
Restart the server.
