Note
titleConfiguration File Archives

During a UNIX system mode install upgrade, the installation logic creates .archive directories (if they do not already exist) under the /etc/universal and /etc/universal/comp directories. Copies of existing configuration and component definition files, respectively, are stored in these directories. These archived files are then used to merge existing configuration and component definition values into the newly installed files. This allows the install to provide new configured default values while retaining existing settings.

If you take your own configuration or component definition file backups prior to upgrading a Universal Agent install, be sure to save them outside of the /etc/universal and /etc/universal/comp directories. Otherwise, the configuration merge logic may fail to behave as expected.
