Open-Xchange Customer Repository Structure
Organization of the Open-Xchange private repository
As a customer with a special support contract you will receive patches for critical problems in a special directory which can only accessed by you, personally.
This repository has a consistent layout:
6.18.2
\
- custom
- ptf
6.20
\
- custom
- ptf
[...]
You will find your patches organized within top-level folders matching the version of the release you are currently using. Within these folders, you will always find
- a folder custom which contains individual customizing or manually uploaded stuff which does not fit into our automated processes.
- a folder ptf which contains individual bugfix patches as you requested them. These are automatically maintained by our internal workflow- and buildsystem.
Within the folder ptf, you will find repositories containing packages for all linux platforms you are maintaining:
ptf_yyyy-mm-dd_yyyymmddnnnnnnnn_ldbaccount ptf_yyyy-mm-dd_yyyymmddnnnnnnnn_ldbaccount [...]
Each of them contain
DebianLenny DebianLenny_all Release_Notes_PTF_for_Ticket_yyyymmddnnnnnnnn_ldbaccount_yyyy-mm-dd.pdf RHEL6 RHEL6_all [...]
As we only build the packages containing the bugfixes for your problem, we also provide "consolidated" repositories containing all our packages. These have the suffix _all. These directories contain symlinks to the matching version of this build within http://software.open-xchange.com/X.YY/updates. However, with the next public patch release, these symlinks will become stale which means they will be removed then and instead you will find this:
DebianLenny DebianLenny_all.readme RHEL6 RHEL6_all.readme [...]
