Explaining the directory structure
Changes in the directory structure as of version 5.0.0
As of version 5.0.0 the directory contains the JAVA installation for your ConnectPlaza Agent. When you have started your ConnectPlaza Agent for the first time, the software has downloaded the correct JAVA version for you and installed in into the ConnectPlaza install directory.
See the next directory structure:
As you can see, we have created a jdk directory for you and a symbolic link with the name agent. This symbolic links to the actual agent directory which is active. In this case 5.0.0.RC3.
If we go into the agent directory, we see some other symbolic links to the directories .data, activemq-data, jdk, logs and temp. In the jars directory, we created a symbolic link to the endorsed directory, because of your personal .jar files needed to run in your environment. These directories contain your personal data and must not be deleted when we update to a higher version.
You can find these directories in the installation directory of your ConnectPlaza Agent, see image above.
