The following is an example of an Add-on AppTier installation package descriptor file.

<sdk-package>
     <apptier-name> Generic Mail Server </apptier-name>
     <package-files>
          <package-file package-to-set="true"> GenericMailServer.zip
          </package-file>
     </package-files>
</sdk-package>

The following is the basic hierarchy of an XML-based descriptor file:

...

• The root element is <SDK>
• General characteristics of the application and their attributes
• Entities and their attributes
• Counters and their attributes
