Issue/Introduction

I am having inconsistent results when trying to apply robot settings with the nms-robot-vars.cfg after an rpm installation of a robot. What are the best practices for the file and its use?

Environment

Release : 20.4
Component : robot

Resolution

The following will apply:

-the nms-robot-vars.cfg will have to have a carriage return after the last data line
-the ./RobotConfigurer.sh can only be run one time after the rpm installation. running successive times will not perform updates.
-the origin= entry is placed in the spooler.cfg file not in the robot.cfg file
