Use properties files to manage system configuration

Use wsadmin and properties files to administer your administrative architecture and runtime settings. We can use properties files to manage the environment and configuration objects. We can extract configuration objects in simple properties file format, modify the extracted properties file, and apply the modified properties file to update the system configuration.

In addition to updating system properties, we can do the following:

A properties file extracted from a configuration contains the following information about the configuration:

Properties files are portable. We can extract a properties file from one cell, modify some environment-specific variables at the bottom of the extracted properties file, and then apply the modified properties file to another cell.

To use non-English, localized special characters in properties files, save the properties files using UTF-8 encoding. Using any other encoding might cause errors when the product resolves the non-English resources during properties file validation or cause incorrect value changes in the configuration files after applying the properties files.

Save the changes to your configuration.
