Installation directories
Adobe Media Server is installed to the following directory:

The configuration files are installed to the following directory:

Adobe Media Server on Amazon Web Services has a few differences from a standard Adobe Media Server installation.
The following directories are located in the /mnt directory:
/mnt/applications
/mnt/logs
/mnt/webroot
The applications, logs, and webroot directory are in the /mnt directory, because on Adobe Media Server on Amazon
Web Services, the /mnt directory contains more storage space than the / <root> directory.
