CAP Directories

The following table describes the SMS directories that reside on a CAP, and for each directory, lists the SMS component that uses that directory. These directories are located in the \CAP_<SiteCode> directory. Because a site system can be a CAP for several SMS sites, there can be several \CAP_<SiteCode> directories, each for a different site.
