PFA processing uses the ini file from the check directory if one exists otherwise, it uses the ini file from /etc/PFA.
PFA can use the single ini file for all checks in the /etc/PFA directory, which means you only have to update and maintain one ini file. If you prefer a specific check uses a different level of Java™ than what is specified in the /etc/PFA/ini directory, provide an ini file in the check directory for the check. For example, create an ini file in the pfa/PFA_MESSAGE_ARRIVAL_RATE/ directory if you want to use a different level of Java for the PFA_MESSAGE_ARRIVAL_RATE check.
If the path to the JDK for your installation is not the same as the path in the ini file in /etc/PFA/ and in the checks’ directories (if they exist) or if you installed the PFA Java code in a location other than the default path, you must update each ini file after running the install script for PFA.
