I added this property to the orientdb-server-config.xml:
<entry value="/opt/orientdb-community-1.7-SNAPSHOT/wal" name="storage.wal.path"/>
but the "WAL" directory remains empty, and the "WAL" files are in the database directory:
root@orientdbZone:~/# ls -lt /opt/orientdb-community-1.7-SNAPSHOT/databases/dbpedia/
total 9187
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8978432 Apr 24 15:29 dbpedia.0.wal
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 66560 Apr 24 15:29 nodo.cpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 590848 Apr 24 15:29 nodo.pcl
[..]
root@orientdbZone:~/# ls -lt /opt/orientdb-community-1.7-SNAPSHOT/wal/
