Editing server configurations in the test environment

There may be occasions when you want to edit a server configuration.

For example, you may want to open the server administrative console and then edit some properties, such as configuring the behavior of human tasks at run time. Or you may want to open the IBM Integration Designer server configuration editor and then edit some basic settings, such as modifying a port number. Modifying port numbers, for example, avoids creating additional server profiles.

Generally, if you want to change a property in the server administrative console that is also found in the server configuration editor, you may need to change the property in the administrative console first and then make the corresponding change in the server configuration editor. This is dependent on the specific property that you want to change.

If you are specifically interested in editing server security settings, you should read the topic "Managing security" and its related subtopics.

To edit server configurations:


Procedure

  1. To edit properties in the server administrative console:

    1. In the Business Integration or Debug perspective, click the Servers tab to open the Servers view.

    2. In the Servers view, right-click your running server and select Administration > Run administrative console. The administrative console opens.

    3. In the User ID and Password fields, specify your administrative user ID and password and then click Log In. (The default user ID and password is admin unless you chose to change the default user ID and password when installed IBM Integration Designer using IBM Installation Manager.)
    4. Edit the server configuration as required. You can obtain help information for any individual field or control in the administrative console by selecting a field or control and pressing F1.
    5. Save your changes and close the administrative console.

    6. If the server is already running and you want the server to pick up your changes to the server configuration, right-click the server and select Restart. (Additional information about restarting a server is found in the topic "Restarting servers.")

  2. To edit properties in the server configuration editor:

    1. In the Business Integration or Debug perspective, click the Servers tab to open the Servers view.

    2. In the Servers view, right-click your server and select Open. The server configuration editor opens.
    3. Edit the server configuration as required. You can obtain help information for any individual field or control in the server configuration editor by selecting a field or control and pressing F1.
    4. Press Ctrl+S to save your changes and close the editor.

    5. If the server is already running and you want the server to pick up your changes to the server configuration, right-click the server and select Restart. (Additional information about restarting a server is found in the topic "Restarting servers.")
