HI Balaji,
The files that you creates i.e. GUID files for promotion management are files which are required by Promotion to run. Each file has its own importance :
- lcm.admin-guid file holds the details of the systems defined in the settings -> manage systems page and this system information is retrieved from this file during the promotion process
- lcm.cms-guid[xyz123].list.properties holds the information of the source and destination CMS of a job
- lcm.global-guid[xyz123].config.properties holds a promotion job’s overriding information
As you compared the files to the other environment they are many because each time you create a job a new file will also get created which stores the information of the job in it. So it is possible you would have different numbers of file in different environment.
