Note If another user modifies and saves the seed file before you save your changes,
SGM asks if you want to overwrite that user’s changes. If you choose to do so, the
other user’s changes are overwritten and lost. If you choose not to do so, your
changes are lost, unless you save the seed file to a different filename.
SGM stores the seed file in the seed file directory on the SGM server:
•If you installed SGM in the default directory, /opt, then the SGM seed file
directory is /opt/CSCOsgm/seeds.
•If you installed SGM in a different directory, then the SGM seed file directory
is located in that directory.
To delete a seed file from the seed file list, select a file and click Delete. SGM
issues an informational message containing the name and location of the deleted
file.
To save any changes you made to the list of files, click OK. SGM saves the
changes and closes the Load File Dialog: Seed File List dialog.
To close the Save File Dialog: Seed File List dialog without saving the seed file
or saving any changes to the seed file list, click Cancel.
Creating and Modifying Seed Files Using a Text Editor
A seed file is simply an unformatted list of seed node names. To create a seed file
using a text editor, simply create a file and list the seed node names, one on each
line, with no other formatting:
new-york-a
new-york-b
chicago-c
