/usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin, /etc/opt, or /opt will be seen on servers as primary places to put software only because /usr/bin, /bin, and /usr/sbin would be overwritten on upgrades.
Many times application software would be placed on a partition all it own to keep system files and application files separate.

NAME
stl_mi - Software distribution master inventory files
DESCRIPTION
Each software product that is distributed as subsets for the setld(8) command has an associated master inventory file. The master inventory
file's name consists of the product's unique 3-letter name and a 3-digit version number with the string .mi for a suffix. The master inven-
tory file is used by the software kitting program kits(1) in producing software distribution packages.
A master inventory file contains one ASCII record, describing vendor-specified attribute information, for each file in the product kit.
Each record is composed of three fields which must be separated by TAB characters. The fields are: A 16-bit unsigned integer.
Bit 1 is the v (volatility) bit; when it is set, changes to the existing copy of the file can occur during kit installation. It is
usually set for log files required by applications. The remaining bits are reserved. Possible values for this field are therefore 0
or 2. The dot-relative (./) pathname of the file described by this record. Each pathname must appear only once in the master
inventory file. Pathnames must begin with a period (.). Records must be sorted in ascending ASCII sequence on this field. The name
of the subset containing the file. Standard system directories are not included in subsets; they are represented by the keyword
RESERVED in place of a subset name. Files that exist in the product hierarchy but are not distributed as part of any subset have a
minus sign (-) in this field. Files that share a gnode (links) must all be included in the same subset.
EXAMPLES
This example shows a section of the master inventory for a hypothetical layered product kit: 0 . RESERVED 0 ./usr/opt
