The Job Results directory stores the job result files created when a job is initiated. By default, the Job Results directory is created when the software is installed. For example, the directory may be software_installation_directory\iDataAgent\JobResults. You can change this location by specifying a new path.
The job results directory cannot reside on a compressed drive or in the following folders:
-
software_installation_folder/Base
-
software_installation_folder/GUI
-
Log Files folder
You cannot change the path of the Job Results directory for the following clients:
-
Laptop clients
-
Pseudo-clients such as NAS clients or virtualization clients
To change job results for pseudo-clients, change the path on the dependent backup nodes or on the proxy.
