(This is a one time activity, to get the current structure of  MDS in your server location, You can choose any toLocation in above statement.)

5. Now go to below location to update the AIAConfig file.
(you can open in another session or open the file using Winscp)
/home/MDSArtifacts/soa/configuration/default and Change the AIAConfigurationProperties.xml
