Each machine in an application that supports servers must have a copy of the BEA Tuxedo system software and application software. You identify the location of system software with the TUXDIR parameter. You identify the location of the application software with the APPDIR parameter. Both parameters are mandatory. The APPDIR parameter becomes the current working directory of all server processes. The BEA Tuxedo software looks in TUXDIR/bin and APPDIR for executables.

Characteristics of the APPDIR and TUXDIR Parameters

Parameter	Characteristics
