3. Navigate to the above folder and you will find a file named log4net.config file
4. Open the log4net.config file in a text editor and replace the value:- "value="..\..\logs\" at all places required in the file with the new path e.g:- "value="C:\tibco\Logs" (it must be absolute path) 
5. Use the import-Service-config commands to import the configuration and apply the new service configuration either using the UI or using the set-service-config commands. Please check the reference links below for information on how to import-service-config and set-service-config
