Administering NetIM : Important core NetIM files and directories
  
Important core NetIM files and directories
The installation directory on NetIM core is NetIM/<version_build>.
For example, the full path to the install directory on NetIM core is: /data1/riverbed/NetIM/latest
The NetIM installation directory has the following main subdirectories:
doc—Contains NetIM documentation
input—Contains device access information and ASCII data files
lib—Contains XML control files, MIBs, ASCII data templates
log—Contains product log files
The NetIM startup scripts, database scripts, and libraries are located in the installation directory.

The NetIM temporary directory, also referred to as the temp dir in this document, is the working directory where adapter data files are collected and processed.
By default, this directory is /data1/riverbed/NetIM/op_admin/tmp/vne and contains subdirectories that are organized by adapter. The XML files produced by each adapter are also staged in the temp dir before they are imported into the network database. Adapters rename their temporary files after they are processed, so the Maintenance Service can identify and remove old files.
You specify the location of the temp dir during NetIM installation and cannot change it after installation is complete.
The following table lists the organization of the NetIM temp dir environment.
