By default, Obsidian will look for a file on the classpath named /obsidianInitialization.json. You may override the classpath resource name using the system property obsidianInitClasspath. For example, you could add the java system property -DobsidianInitClasspath=/com/mycompany/obsidianInit.json. You can also use a file-based resource by using the system property obsidianInitFile. For example, you could add the java system property -DobsidianInitFile=/var/obsidian/obsidianScheduleInitialization.json.

As of Obsidian 3.0.0

At times, you may wish to perform initialization, backup or restoration of an Obsidian configuration. For example, you may wish to take a known good configuration from a development environment and apply it to a test environment.

In Obsidian 3.0.0, we introduce an expansion of our Initializing Job Schedules support that leverages the system restore functionality of our API.

By default, Obsidian will look for a file on the classpath named /obsidianInitialization.json. You may override the classpath resource name using the system property obsidianInitClasspath. For example, you could add the java system property -DobsidianInitClasspath=/com/mycompany/obsidianInit.json. You can also use a file-based resource by using the system property obsidianInitFile. For example, you could add the java system property -DobsidianInitFile=/var/obsidian/obsidianScheduleInitialization.json.

Note: Initialization only runs on scheduler instances. This means that a standalone Obsidian web application with no scheduler running will not do any initialization based on the presence of the appropriate JSON file.
