Some environment variables are created and/or set by all Seon binaries. These variables are:

All processes started by Seon (event scripts, plugins, etc.) have access to these environment variables. The environment variable "Seon_CFGFILE" points to the absolute path to the Seon main configuration file. This has two effects:

  • you may start Seon programs in a shell where this variable is set without using the parameter "-C" for all binaries (because the environment variable points to the correct position of the configfile)
  • all subsequent processes started by Seon (like event scripts) don't have to bother about the given configfile (like plugins of Seon Enterprise).
