Creating a link

Hi All,

Suppose i have a directory called
/home/rooh and I have an executable that writes to this directory.
the size of /home/rooh/logs is quite small and thus blows out of space.
I don't want to modify the executable but I want to create a link so that all the logs are moved there .

Suppose I want to create a link undet /PT/prod/work becuause this is a big filesysytem.

What I am currently doing is creating a directory called logs under /PT/prod/work i.e /PT/prod/work/logs and then executing this command:
ln -fis /home/rooh/logs /PT/prod/work/logs

this doesn't seem to be correct.....
Can somebody please help me with this.

Thanks
Rooh
