Saving a Seed File

You use the MWTM to save a specific seed file, change the list of seed files, and select one seed file to be loaded automatically when the MWTM client is started or the Discovery dialog box is opened.

When you are satisfied that the MWTM has discovered all of the nodes in the network, save the list of seed nodes in a seed file by using one of these procedures:

•To save the changes you made to the seed file without changing the name of the file, choose File > Save from the Discovery Dialog menu.

•To save the changes you have made to the seed file with a new name, choose File > Save As from the Discovery Dialog menu. The MWTM displays the Save File Dialog: Seed File List dialog box (Figure 4-3).

The MWTM stores the seed file in the seed file directory on the MWTM server:

•If you installed the MWTM in the default directory, /opt, then the MWTM seed file directory is /opt/CSCOsgm/seeds.

•If you installed the MWTM in a different directory, then the MWTM seed file directory is located in that directory.
