Commondir Files

Most businesses have only one enterprise for their production system, so the following files do not typically have maintenance issues. However, if a business has multiple enterprises, regular file maintenance may be necessary.

Each enterprise has a copy of the standard versions of these file types:

  • Workflows
  • Rules
  • Maps
  • Forms

Work items entering the workflow require maintenance; if work items are not monitored, they can consume an enormous amount of disk space. Work items are stored in the following date stamped sub-directories:

  • InDoc
  • OutDoc
  • ErrDoc
    Note: Temporary files are created in this directory:
    $MQ_COMMONDIR/Temp/*

    If you wish to delete them, you can do so by manually deleting them from the above directory. However, we recommend you do not delete files that are less than 1 week old.
