Product extensions

Extensions are installed by the product installer as part of the initial installation. Extensions are skipped during the installation of subsequent applications.

Two extension-related log files, ASI_DriverLog.log and ExtLoader-RIK_Log.log, are generated in the ITSMInstallDir\Logs\ExtLoaderLogs directory.

Note

ITSMInstallDir is the default location where BMC Remedy ITSM Suite is installed:

  • (Microsoft Windows) C:\Program Files\BMC Software\BMCRemedyITSMSuite
  • (UNIX) /opt/bmc/bmcremedyitsmsuite
