Title: Override Windows Drive Map in qbwrk.conf?
Post by: methodhai on March 09, 2008, 09:05:27 PM

Is there a way to override the Windows Drive Map in qbwrk.conf?

Thanks,
Hai

Can you give more details on what you're trying to do?

Sure!

Currently, I'm mapping the drives in the worker from the configuration utility. So  I have O and N mapped to some UNC paths. I was wondering if I could override those from within the qbwrk.conf - so I don't have to log into each box individually to do that.

I've looked at the automount option - but I didn't see a way to making it automount only certain drives....might have just missed it.

Thanks.

You should be able to copy the windows_drive_map configuration entry from the Worker qb.conf into the appropriate configuration in your qbwrk.conf. Consult the Administration manual for more information on setting up qbwrk.conf.

Hi Eric,

The only line(s) I found in the qb.conf that seems like it's related to drive mapping is:

client_drive_map = {N:|\\lamnas001\psyoplam\prod
O:|\\lamnas002\psyoplam\prod
}

Could I just use this?

You need to add to your qbwrk.conf an option called worker_drive_map, but using the same format as the client_drive_map.
