Best place to keep ETL data files in Linux?
Posted: Tue Mar 22, 2011 12:36 pm
We're in the process of migrating from a Windows platform 7.5.1a version of DataStage to a Linux platform Information Server 8.5
The biggest change, next to 7.5 to 8.5, is the Windows to Linux migration. Normally, all of our sequential file data is stored in it's own folder on a D:\ partitioned drive on the Windows server. What's the best practice for working file storage in the Linux environment? Trying to determine the best folder location so that it doesn't "step" on anything else and can be accessed by all developers. I've seen several suggestions like "/etc" "/usr/share" "/shared/home" but would like to know from you guys in your experience where is the best location.
