When using migration jobs, it is possible to write files to an OnServer location. We are using IFS23R2 and the available locations (according to dropdown) are: 

I don't know if these are standard locations.

Are these locations somewhere in our Cloud instance?

How would one get to the files that are written to one of these? So how to read a file which was created there using the CREATE_OUTPUT_FILE procedure?

I've tried to understand the answer of Himasha in:

Totally unclear for me what to do. Also it seems that the documentation for IFS23R2 is helpfull for instances on premise, but I'm certain that I am not understanding that as well (see paragraph Formatting): File Configuration - Technical Documentation For IFS Cloud

Any help is welcome.

With some search, found that a new directory should be requested via an LCS case. IFS will prepare the directory (with the name you want). Once ready you will have to ask for credentials to an FTP site that you have to connect to via VPN.
