Description:
============
Information on some of the temporary files used by the TIBCO iProcess Engine (iPE) that are created in the SWDIR\tsys directory, 'basetime', 'chgusr' and 'swpid'.
SWDIR is the iPE installation directory.

1. The ‘basetime’ file is used to keep the iPE internal process time synchronised with the Windows operating system. A new file is created each time iPE is started.

2. The 'chgusr' file is generated when a Movesysinfo is performed. The parameters associated with the user/group entries relate to the action taking place and whether the user is a user type of ADMIN or not.

3. The ‘swpid’ file is created by the Work Queue Server (WQS) process. It does not not get deleted but the the WQS process will create/re-write the file at startup. The WQS uses the information in the file as a lock when administration tasks are performed such as 'swutil REDIRECTION'.
