The Configuration Manager provides a graphical interface for configuring an instance.

Leaving the IBM WC 7.0 Configuration Manager server service running could potentially pose a security problem. Stop the service when you are not using Configuration Manager. By default, this service is stopped when you exit Configuration Manager. IBM recommends setting the service to manual startup, not automatic.
