Allow spaces in directories for data and logs of Agent and Controller

Details

    Description

      Current Situation

      • The JS7 Instance Start Script for Agents and Controller instances on Windows platforms does not handle spaces correctly.
      • Agent
        • for the logs directory, for example using
          set JS7_AGENT_LOGS=C:\Program Files\js7\agent\var_4445\logs
          
        • for the data directory in absence of a specific logs directory for example using
          set JS7_AGENT_DATA=C:\Program Files\js7\agent\var_4445
          
      • Controller
        • for the logs directory, for example using
          set JS7_CONTROLLER_LOGS=C:\Program Files\js7\controller\var\logs
          
        • for the data directory in absence of a specific logs directory for example using
          set JS7_CONTROLLER_DATA=C:\Program Files\js7\controller\var
          

      Recommendation

      • Users should not use the C:\Program File directory for Agent data or Controller data. Instead the C:\ProgramData directory should be used.
      • In addition, it is recommended not to have the data directory in a location on the boot partition. Agent and Controller journals can grow, for example if the Controller or JOC Cockpit are not available for a longer period. The servers can run short of disk space which affects reboot capabilities.

      Desired Behavior

      • For use with Windows the Agent and Controller Instance Start Scripts consider spaces in any directory name.
