Why does concurrent program FNDMDGEN: Generate Messages only create message files on the Concurrent Manager tier?

SOLUTION

As per the development guide:
Make a copy of the resulting file (which is on the server side), and transfer the copy to the appropriate mesg directory for your application on other machines as needed (concurrent processing servers, forms server machines). The file should have the same name (such as US.msb) in each location.

The program was never intended to create the message files on all tiers as such manual copying of the files are required as per the guide.
