Re: Commands that save files

I have used /*generated*/ directory as same was used in GlassFish 2.1.1.
In many cases, user will provide absolute path specifying the directory
where load-balancer xml file need to be created.

Since generated directory is used for files generated/exploded by
GlassFish, it is best to use the same for load-balancer as well.

Thanks,
