In the newer devstack it can be in a different place (programmer determined).<BR>
I am making it typically be the following.<BR>
<BR>
$ROOTDIR/$COMPONENT/app (for the git checked out code)<BR>
$ROOTDIR/$COMPONENT/config (for configs – unless overridden by the component class)<BR>
$ROOTDIR/$COMPONENT/traces (for traces of what happened during install/start/stop...)<BR>
<BR>
For “production use” I think u are right, they should be in /etc (or where distros put them).<BR>
Just don’t forget devstack is a “</SPAN></FONT><FONT COLOR="#252419"><FONT FACE="Book Antiqua"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11.5pt'> an opinionated openstack developer installation.”<BR>
</SPAN></FONT></FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>Although as more people use it we should try to adopt standard policies. <BR>
Hopefully this newer one we are making can help that be possible.<BR>

<BR>
Is there a reason why a configuration file is installed in a "bin/"<BR>
directory (not following the FHS [1])? In my understanding, the<BR>
"Editable Text Configuration" files should be located in an "etc/"<BR>
directory.<BR>
<BR>
Cheers,<BR>
