Adjusting System Settings
As a system administrator, you adjust logging and customize IaaS email templates. You can also manage
settings that appear as defaults for each tenant, such as email servers to handle notifications. Tenant
administrators can choose to override these defaults if their tenant requires different settings.
Modify the All Services Icon in the Service Catalog
You can modify the default icon in the service catalog to display a custom image. When you modify the
icon, it changes for all tenants. You cannot configure tenant-specific icons for the catalog.
Commands are provided for Linux or Mac and Windows so that you can run the cURL commands on any
of those operating systems.
Prerequisites
n
Convert the image to a base64 encoded string. You can use a conversion tool such as

cURL must be installed on the machine where you run the commands.
