Optional environment variable configuration for XCP NFS systems.

Note A non-root user can also use the following variables.

The environment variable XCP_CONFIG_DIR overrides the default location, /opt/NetApp/xFiles/xcp. If set, the value should be an OS filesystem path, possibly to a mounted NFS directory. When the XCP_CONFIG_DIR variable is set, a new directory with the same name as the host name is created inside the custom configuration directory path, new logs are stored at this location.

[root@localhost /]# export XCP_CONFIG_DIR ='/tmp/xcp_config_dir_path'

The environment variable XCP_LOG_DIR overrides the default location that stores the XCP log in the configuration directory. If set, the value should be an OS filesystem path, possibly to a mounted NFS directory. When the XCP_LOG_DIR variable is set, a new directory with the same name as the host name is created inside the custom log directory path, new logs are stored at this location.

[root@localhost /]# export XCP_LOG_DIR='/tmp/xcp_log_dir_path'

The environment variable XCP_CATALOG_PATH overrides the setting in xcp.ini. If set, the value should be in the xcp path format, server:export[:subdirectory].

[root@localhost /]# export XCP_CATALOG_PATH='10.61.82.210:/vol/xcpvol/'
Note For a non-root user, you must replace XCP_CATALOG_PATH from the exported path with the POSIX path.
