file
Initially, the Product Configuration file starts off with all default values. To modify one or
more of these, double click on the setting in the result pane and select the desired setting
in the resulting popup window.
1 Select the configuration to modify. All configurations parameters are listed on the
right-hand side of the Deployment Tool.
2 Double-click the configuration parameter you want to modify. When a properties
dialog appears, select any options you want. If you select Use current value or installation
default, then the parameter is assigned according to the following:
If an existing installation with a configured value for this parameter already exists (for
upgrades), the existing installation parameter value is retained.
The default installation configuration options for the selected parameter are used
either when an existing installation does not yet have a value for this parameter or for
new installations.
3 Click OK when you are done.
Once you apply the change, the new setting will be reflected in the result pane of the
Product Configuration file.
