To add/delete/modify a script upload component

Open the appropriate XML file located in the Viewpoint home directory. Locate the <components> element.
Create the <component> with a unique id.
Insert the <script-upload> element and set the following three child elements:
1. Set <server-path> to specify a temporary path on the server where the file should be uploaded. This must be a fully qualified path.
2. Set <Cloud-path> to specify the final destination path of the file on the Cloud head. This must be a fully qualified path.
3. Optional: Set <form-submit> to specify an alternative Servlet or other form action URL.
The server and Cloud paths must be different if you are using an SSH connection to the localhost for Moab; otherwise the file will be deleted.
```
<script-upload>
  <server-path>/tmp</server-path>
  <Cloud-path>/var/tmp</Cloud-path>
  <form-submit>/fileupload/script</form-submit>
</script-upload>
```
