config_awips2.sh

There have been a couple of requests to post the config_awips2.sh and associated scripts that NWS WFOs use to localize their AWIPS software to a particular WFO.  While the scripts themselves are of little use to the general public since it requires access to the AWIPS 1 configuration data at the WFOs, the scripts have been posted on the AWIPS II Software Download portal (link at the top of the AWIPS Technical Library).  They can be found in the 15.1.1 folder, in the AWIPSII_AUTOMATION_TOOL.tgz file.

These scripts are associated with the AWIPS 15.1.1 release.  As such, this is not considered to be part of the AWIPS Acquisition baseline documentation/software.
