Chapter 7 Using the Configuration Files : Location of Configuration Files

Location of Configuration Files
The installation process places configuration files in two directories:
config-file-directory/cfmgmt/ems/data/ contains a subset of configuration files suitable for quickly testing the installation. The config-file-directory is specified during the Configuration Directory step installation process.
EMS_HOME/samples/config/ contains the more complete set of sample configuration files. For deployment, we recommend copying files from this directory to a production configuration directory, and modifying those copies.
When selecting a production configuration directory, we recommend using a file system with regular backup commensurate with your need for reliability and disaster recovery. It is essential that the EMS server have both read and write privileges in the configuration directory.
