Important:
If the output directory does not exist, Prerequisite Scanner creates
the directory. You must have write permissions to create or write to the output
directory in which Prerequisite Scanner saves the files.
Common directory locations
There are path name variables for common directories.
IBM Prerequisite Scanner installation directory
ips_root
describes the location where Prerequisite Scanner is installed. This
location can be specified during installation.
Prerequisite Scanner output directory
ips_output_dir
describes the location where the scan results and log files for
Prerequisite Scanner are saved. This location can be specified by using the
outputDir
input parameter when you run the Scanner. If you do not set this
parameter, the default output location is
ips_root
.
Note:
Prerequisite Scanner creates temporary files during its execution, but these
files are deleted before the Scanner completes its execution. These temporary files
are located in the
ips_output_dir
/temp
subdirectory. The Scanner also deletes the
ips_output_dir
/temp
subdirectory, unless the subdirectory contains the debug and
trace files that are generated on UNIX systems only.
