Is /home/cp_extensions ok to use for GDCO files?

[George_Ellis]

A lot of the examples use the /tmp directory to store a json for configuring Generic Data Center Objects.  I find using /tmp risky as that will be one of the places a person will look to save space when free space is needed.  Since GDCO is "Check Point", it made sense at the moment to use the /home/cp_extensions directory to store the .json files.

I would consider that we would need to verify the changes to that directory during upgrades.  But is there a reason not to touch that directory?

If you wonder why, during troubleshooting network issues, our team wants to be able to run a Cisco Thousands Eyes client on the troubled client or server.  So we can add an ad hoc ip to enable it on a temporary basis without a firewall push.

I have no clue in the world if thats officially supported, but I did it before and worked fine, no issues.
