This file is used by the EMS to store stream action commands that are made through the Runtime API. The most important thing to know about the pushPullSetup.xml file is that it should not be modified manually!. At startup, if the EMS detects that the file has been modified it will rename the file and start with a blank/fresh copy.

This file is used for internal purposes only. If, during startup, the EMS detects that changes have been made to the pushPullSetup.xml file, it will rename the existing pushPullSetup.xml file and start with a fresh configuration.

Now that the disclaimer is out of the way, it is important to understand how this file is used. When a pullStream, pushStream, createHLSStream, createHDSStream, createMSSStream, createDASHStream, addMetadatalistner, record, or launchProcess, or startWebRtc command is executed, that command is logged to this file (assuming the keepAlive flag is 1, which it is by default).

When the EMS is started, it parses this file and attempts to recreate all of the connections. These configuration entries can be removed by issuing removeConfig commands, or by setting the keepAlive flag to 0 when the initial command is made.
