Client Host Directories and Files

Every Windows and Linux or UNIX computer that only acts as a client host contains the minimum set of directories and files needed for Oracle Secure Backup operations.

This section contains the following tables:

Table A-7 lists the directory on a client host on any operating system.
Table A-8 lists the directories on a client host that are specific to Windows operating systems.
Table A-9 lists the directories and files on a client host that are specific to Linux and UNIX operating systems.

Table A-7 Architecture-Independent Directory for a Client Host

Directory Description

Directory	Description
`bin/`	Executables or links to executables In an installation on a Windows operating system, this directory contains the executables for the Windows operating system. In an installation on a Linux or UNIX operating system, this directory contains links to the executables for the operating system.

bin/

Executables or links to executables

In an installation on a Windows operating system, this directory contains the executables for the Windows operating system.
In an installation on a Linux or UNIX operating system, this directory contains links to the executables for the operating system.

Table A-8 Windows Operating System Directories and Files for a Client Host

Directory	Description
`db\.hostid`	Identifying information for this host
`db\wallet`	Security credentials for this host.
`temp\`	Log file for `observiced` and temporary files
`help\`	Oracle Secure Backup help files

Table A-9 Linux and UNIX Operating System Directories and Files for a Client Host

Directory or File	Description
`.bin.operating_system/`	Executables for operating_system, where operating_system is a derivative of the operating system name. For example, the directory for Sun Solaris is `.bin.solaris`.
`etc/`	Architecture-independent executables for daemons and maintenance tools
`.etc.operating_system/`	Daemons and utility programs for operating_ system
`man/`	Man pages for Oracle Secure Backup components
`/usr/etc/ob/.hostid`	Identifying information for this host
`/usr/etc/ob/xcr/`	Transcripts for jobs that ran on this host
`/usr/tmp/`	Log files for `observiced` files, `obndmpd` files, and temporary files
`.wrapper`	Shell program that selects an executable from a `.bin.` or `.etc.` directory, based on the computer architecture of the host executing the command. Symbolic links and the architecture-independent `.wrapper` shell program enable hosts to contain executables for multiple computer architectures.
