The article provides the information needed to change the location of your Data Virtuality server temp folder.

By default the location is …/dvserver/standalone/tmp.

In order to change the location, you will have to adjust the standalone.conf.props.bat for Windows machines and the standalone.conf.props for Linux machines.

Please add the following line to the file:

set "JAVA\_OPTS=%JAVA\_OPTS% -Djboss.server.temp.dir=\<newLocation\>

To use the new location, you will have to restart the Data Virtuality server.
