Moving shopping data

We recommend that you do not move the shopping data when users have started shopping. If you do move the data to another volume, all the individual file permissions are lost and must be reapplied manually.

If you move rather than copy the data to somewhere else on the same volume, the file permissions are retained.

To move the data to another location on the same volume

  1. Stop IIS.

  2. Stop the Shopping service.

  3. Move the data. (Do not copy it.)

  4. Change the data location in the Vault Administration Console by performing the following steps in the order listed:

    • In the Administration Console, expand the left pane until the appropriate Vault Site is visible.

    • Expand the Vault Site until Computers is visible.

    • Expand Computers.

    • Expand the computer that runs the Shopping service.

    • In the right pane, double-click the Shopping service that you want to modify.

    • On the General tab of the Shopping Service property page, click Change.

    • If you are prompted for the password to the Vault Service account, type it and then click OK.

    • In the Choose Folder dialog box, select the new folder and then click OK.

  5. Start the Shopping service and IIS.
