4-1 Overview of Provisioning Manager Server Properties
Provisioning Manager server properties can be divided into two types:
• Server configuration properties are located in the
server.properties file.
• Server log properties are located in the
logger.properties file.
The default directory for the properties files is as follows:
C:\Program Files\CVXPAE\ProvisioningManager\conf
These files are formatted as Java™ properties files, which means you can use a text editor to update the
properties. A property is specified by connecting its property name and the appropriate value with an equals
sign, as in
foo.bar=12345. Each such specification of a name and a value is delimited by the appropriate
end-of-line character.
Any line in a Provisioning Manager properties file that begins with a hash mark (#) is handled as a comment.
You do not need to enclose a literal (character string or numerics) in double quotation marks. The Boolean
values are
true and false (not case-sensitive). Any other specification (for example, yes) is interpreted as
false.
In a Java™ properties files, the backslash (\) is a reserved character that represents the escape character. The
backslash is used to indicate that the character immediately following it is a control character, such as a tab or
linefeed. Because absolute path names in Windows
®
generally contain backslashes, in a properties file you
must insert the backslash escape character preceding any path name backslash. For example, if a file's path
name is:
c:\CVXPAE\docroot\foo.bar, enter
c:\\CVXPAE\\docroot\\foo.bar.
In general, you do not need the backslash escape character for any other characters in property specifications.
If you modified the
server.properties file, the change will be applied after restarting HiCommandServer.
If you modified the
logger.properties file, the change will be applied after restarting HiCommandServer
and the Common Component services.
For details on how to restart HiCommandServer and the Common Component services, see the manual

.
If you do not specify the properties or if a specified value for a property exceeds the valid range, the
Provisioning Manager server operates by using the default value.
Table 4-1 lists the Provisioning Manager properties and indicates the location where each property is explained
in detail.
