The Domain Directory Structure
Contents of the "domain" Directory Only relevant when domain mode is used. configuration -- configuration files for the domain and for the Host Controller and any servers running off of this installation. If we've done our jobs well, these configuration files are the only configuration files end users should need to touch (outside of deployment descriptors in their own application deployments). See below for more on these files. content -- an internal working area for the Host Controller that controls this installation. This is where it internally stores deployment content. This directory is not meant to be manipulated by end users. log -- location where the Process Controller and Host Controller write their log files. servers -- writeable area used by each AS instance. Each AS instance will have its own subdirectory, created when the server is first started. In each server's subdirectory there will be the following subdirectories: data -- information written by the server that needs to survive a restart of the server log -- the server's log files tmp -- location for temporary files written by the server
