Name 

Directory Gathered 

CAD_App 

/net/ApServA/etc/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/CAD_App

DrawingApp 

/etc/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/DrawingApp

Desktop_Apps 

/usr/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/Desktop_Apps

Desktop_Tools 

/usr/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/Desktop_Tools

Information 

/usr/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/Information

OpenWindows 

/usr/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/Information

System_Admin 

/etc/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/System_Admin

MySpreadSheet 

/users/anna/.dt/appmanager/MySpreadSheet

Media_Tools 

/etc/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C/Media_Tools

If the Information or System_Admin application groups have been customized, they will be gathered from /etc/dt/appconfig/appmanager/C instead.

The CAD_App group is gathered because a system named ApServA has been added to the application search path (see Adding an Application Server to the Application Search Path). MySpreadSheet is a personal application group, available only to user anna.
