Dave,

You've got the idea, all right.  One problem, though.  If the product-
queue is moved to a non-exported partition and replaced with a symbolic
link, then the "ldmadmin delqueue" command can never be executed because
that would remove the symbolic link.  I suggest creating the symbolic
link *and* editing the file "etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf" to set the $pq_path
variable to the new pathname of the product-queue.  This should allow
the "ldmadmin delqueue" command to work as well as individual LDM
utilities that would rely on the symbolic link.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
