Location of user defined functions generated jar file
We are in the process of doing some database migrations from one DB type to another, but we are running into a problem getting the user defined functions jar file to generate for the new database and we can't find a copy of the old one to potentially use instead.
In order to find one of the old ones I was wondering where does the jar file get put on the database server when this user defined jar file is created by the scripts?

Hi @DanielH1749: Can you explain regarding the user defined jar files created by scripts.
If you are looking for the custom jar files imported into customer codeset in DB, you can export them using a product rule (Use query jar under jar files to include section).
Thanks

No basically in Pega there are certain functions that are used by the database you can generate at install time or via a batch script. When these scripts are run they simultaneously create DDL for the database to execute to get those functions created in the database for them to and the scripts also create a jar file in the database/database server as well for the database to be able to reference/use when running the newly created functions.
Right now we are trying to migrate our database from one type to another but we are having issues getting the jar file re-created on both the new and old database so I was trying to see if we could find where one of our old jar files may have been generated.
