%JBOSS4_DIST%\server\appiq\remotescripts directory on the management
server when the script is executed. You can use environment variables in your script, such as

the policy name and POLICY_DESCRIPTION provides the policy description. See
”Software Environment Variables for Scripting” on page 294 for more information.
Prefix the command with “start” if the custom command triggers a user interface component,
