As described in Getting Sun GlassFish Web Space Server Software, Web Space Server software is available in several different package formats. The directory in which the software is installed may vary depending on the package you are using. Throughout this document, the following conventions for references to installation directories are used:
Web Space Server root directory: ws-install-dir
Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server root directory: gf-install-dir
Oracle WebLogic Server root directory: or-install-dir
See File System Layout for a detailed explanation of the Web Space Server installation directory structure.
The instructions and examples in this document use UNIX-style forward slash (/) path separators in file and command names. If Web Space Server is installed on a Windows system, be sure to use backslashes (\) instead of forward slashes; for example:
UNIX systems or Linux systems — ws-install-dir/bin/asadmin
Windows systems — ws-install-dir\bin\asadmin
