I want to know where the assets (files) are stored on an Usergrid server and how to change their location on the filesystem.

After some research it appears that by default they are stored in /tmp/usergrid

This is not optimal at all. It is possible to change the location by editing this file /stack/rest/src/main/resources/usergrid-rest-context.xml

From

<bean id="binaryStore" class="org.apache.usergrid.services.assets.data.LocalFileBinaryStore">
    <property name="reposLocation" value="${usergrid.temp.files}"/>
</bean>

To

<bean id="binaryStore" class="org.apache.usergrid.services.assets.data.LocalFileBinaryStore">
    <property name="reposLocation" value="/<customcation>"/>
</bean>

I put my static assets in a virtual path with my server.xml:

<Context docBase="/path/to/static/files" path="/static" />
