Actually through my perl code I am generating some files and I want to store them at a particular location in "/tmp" directory.

So how can I achieve that ??

What part are you having a problem with? Any error messages? Any code?

I am calling blktrace tool from my Perl code.
The output of this tool gets saved on the current directory.

From my perl code I want to go to "/tmp/xyz" directory.

I know on terminal i can achieve it by "cd /tmp/xyz".
But then how to do it from my perl code ??
