N1 Service Provisioning System 4.1 User's Guide

Component Type: File

Files represent an untyped single file taken from a target machine. The provisioning software deploys the files directly with no special post processing. Although files have a system component the functionality for installation, snapshot, and un-installation are built-in to the system and are not represented in the component XML.
