Good points - I tried recursive grepping but it kept blowing up - presumably when it hit large binaries.
My unix skills aren't great enough know what to all avoid or even how to write out "grep this but not that" kind of stuff. I'll do some googling on that. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Grooms, Frederick W Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2014 10:24 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Configuration file extenstions (Linux) Don't forget the main bin/arsystem script. It has no extension. You might start at the root install directory and do a recursive grep for that directory i.e. If your ARS installation is installed at /opt/bmc/ars cd /opt/bmc/ars grep -r -e "/opt/bmc/ars" . You also want to check the /etc/arsystem/{ServerName} directory as well as the home directory of the login that you run the ARS server as.

In short, this means our installation directory is going to change. I'm not too worried about finding the app settings inside the DB to update, but outside the db I need to find all of the places the install directory is embedded in the app - then we are going to have a script written/run for us that does a search and replace. I know Remedy uses the following file extensions to hold configuration data or otherwise might embed the install path for the app - does anyone know of any more? . .xml . .conf . .cfg . .properties . .sh (all of the startup stuff) Thanks in advance...
