How to Change Location nonpersistent REDO file

Want to place the REDO file on a RAMDISK. Is there a VMX entry

to specify a different location for the REDO file?

I believe that if you change the workingDir parameter, then all temporary files created/used by the running VM will be created in that folder. This should include the non-persistent disk file.

Thank you. There are other entries in the VMX file for REDO but they are used by the system and you cannot manually give them a value. The workingDir works!
