Hello
Currently our C drive on server has very limited space for debug logs. Please share the steps to change the below location to another drive.
C:\program files\veritas\netbackup\logs
Thank you

Thank you for the reply.
The steps will work which you share by the article. However I was looking in the registry.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veritas\NetBackup\CurrentVersion
String Vaule: Log Directory
C:\Program Files\Veritas\\NetBackup\logs
So my question is will changing the value here update the new path or do I have to still go through the symlink option.
Thank you

There used to be a TN about changing log location in the registry, but I cannot find it.
I am not a Windows expert, so, I don't quite understand the meaning of the '\\'.
I have just tried the following on my laptop (I have NBU 8.0 Client installed) :
Stopped NetBackup Client Services.
Modified Registry entry to: C:\Temp\\NetBackup\logs
Created all folders up to bpcd under C:\Temp. (C:\Temp\NetBackup\logs\bpcd)
Started NBU Client Services again.
Nothing under C:\Temp\NetBackup\logs\bpcd.
Log file was created under original folder: C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\logs\bpcd
Hopefully someone else can help with changing Registry entry....

Its same with me as well. But I would like to thank you for the reply as the article that you shared it works using link to another drive.
Thank you
