### 16.1.3. The EKM Root Directory

The EKM root directory is the root directory where EKM is installed to. This is the path referred to as `EKM_ROOT`.

For each EKM version, a version-specific root directory (EKM version root) is installed under the parent `EKM_ROOT` directory. For EKM 18.2, this directory is `EKM_ROOT182`. This directory corresponds to the `v182` directory under `EKM_ROOT`. For example:

Windows: `\\server\share\ekm\v182`

Linux: `/server/share/ekm/v182`

The EKM version root directory contains the EKM server home directory: `EKM_ROOT182/ekm-server`, referred to as `EKM_HOME`.

The EKM version root directory also contains the EKM service control scripts: `EKM_ROOT182/bin`.
