<para>The II_SYSTEM environment variable passes the absolute path to your Ingres root directory.</para><para>Note: This is not the &quot;ingres&quot; directory.
 The &quot;ingres&quot; directory is a sub-directory of the Ingres installation.
 Thus, II_SYSTEM passes the absolute path to the directory that contains the &quot;ingres&quot; subdirectory.
 For instance:</para><programlisting>-bash-2.05b$ echo $II_SYSTEM
/dbs3/ingresII
-bash-2.05b$ cd $II_SYSTEM
-bash-2.05b$ ls
