==================================
Changing where projects are stored
==================================


To make aen-compute service use a different directory than ``/projects`` to
store your AEN projects:

#. Modify the ``/opt/wakari/wakari-compute/etc/wakari/wk-compute-launcher-config.json`` file:

   .. code-block:: bash

      "projectRoot" : "/nfs/storage/services/wakari/projects",

   NOTE: The directory ``/nfs/storage/services/wakari/projects`` specified as
   ``projectRoot`` must already exist for this command to resolve properly.

#. Restart the AEN compute service:

   .. code-block:: bash

      sudo service wakari-compute restart
