If you wish to move a Partek Flow project data from one disk to another and continue using the project, please follow the steps below:

  1. Use rsync to copy the project data from the old disk to the new disk.  For example, if you wish to move Project A from an internal disk to an external drive mounted as hdd: 

    $ rsync -avr /home/user/FlowData/Project_A /mnt/HDD/FlowData2/Project_A

    Using rsync -avr guarantees that the time stamps would not change.
     

  2. In Partek Flow, logon as a user with Admin privileges. Go to Settings>Directory permissions page

  3. In the Directory Reassignment section, type the Former directory and select the Current directory (Figure 1)

    For example: 

    Figure 1: Directory Reassignment


  4. Select Reassign button

  5. Open the project. 

  6. You can now remove the former directory
