Hi Jan, et al, Re: Use of /usr/share
- Is there a registry for names under /usr/share? I would prefer having a known space that does not conflict with others. (e.g. /usr/share/fwslc). - Is it "ok" to have symlinks in the local instance directory structure to said /usr/share area. NOTE: All usage is "read-only". - For an instance, there is a collection of "prototype" configuration files. Is it "ok" to store these under the /usr/share area, and copy them to the local instance directory (thereby maintaining the "read- only" nature of the items under /usr/share)? --- I have a collection of scripts that have a version id associated with it. I allow updating infrastructure by simply changing a symlink from one version of the infrastructure to another What I want to do is have all database instances sharing the version of the scripts that is selected for that instance. That is, your db instance could be using a different version of the infrastructure scripts than I am, but there is only one copy of the scripts for any version. If there are "overrides" to a script (local mods), then selection of that modified script is handled by PATH ordering.
