Special Considerations
See Supported EBS Object Types at the end of this document for supported objects and considerations.
Please note that you need to ensure custom files are defined in the custom synchronization driver. For example, if you have custom java class files under the $JAVA_TOP/{Company identifier}/*
directory, and if all the files under this directory need to be synchronized between the patch file system and the run file system, then add the following entry in the custom synchronization driver file: rsync -zr %s_current_base%/EBSapps/comn/java/classes/{Company identifier}
%s_other_base%/EBSapps/comn/java/classes
