To what subfolders should these symbolic links point and what is expected to be in them?

Hello.

To what subfolders should these symbolic links point and what is expected to be in them?

vmupgrade -> /locker/vmupgrade/

locker -> /store

productLocker -> /vmfs/volumes/524c1961-4f1be91b-2a45-0017a4770028/locker/packages/6.5.0

scratch -> /vmfs/volumes/5232e9d5-2b735d20-ad4a-0017a4770084/.locker-sdu-esxi04

store -> /vmfs/volumes/56b4711c-8c6587e7-8fad-0017a477041e

vmupgrade points to nowhere but locker ends in /vmfs/volumes/56b4711c-8c6587e7-8fad-0017a477041e which contains packages and vars. packages contains var and vmtoolsRepo. vmtoolsRepo contains floppies and vmtools. vmtools contain older vmtools iso files.

productLocker contains the newer current ones.
