You have to look at the Ignite server itself. There are charactersitcs such as hostname and ip address that may be unique and match the client.

If you left that up to the isntaller at install time, then see her or his notes.

You may be able to poke around in /var/opt/ignite and find something matches your target server and gives you a clue.

Yatin,

Configuration file of clients are stored in /var/opt/ignite/clients.
Everytime when you install cleint it will ask you for certain configuration to be done and if it finds configuration for that client already in the server it will prompt you whether to use that on or you want to modify the same. If you modify it, the original one gets overwritten with latest configuration you do.
So for any instance you have only one configuration file for a particular client and that in /var/opt/ignite/clients.

On client side you won't be able to see configuration file but any way if you want to have a look from client side itself then you can check the Install log file stored on client which can tell you about which configuration file it has used from Igntie server and it is in /var/opt/ignite/local/install.log.

Hope that helps.
All the best.

Regards,
Bharat

Re: How to determine Machine Configuration File Type ?

look into
/var/opt/ignite/clients//recovery/latest
in the ignite server .

This was the latest ignite image and most probably that was the one used .
