id="rzahqrzahqcftrf">NWSD configuration file format

An NWSD configuration file consists of multiple occurrences of entry types, each with a different function. The entry types are:

Remove lines from an existing integrated server file with CLEARCONFIG entry type

Use this entry type if you want to remove all lines from the integrated server file.

Change an integrated server file with ADDCONFIG entry type

Use this entry type to add, replace, or remove lines in the integrated server file.

Change an integrated Windows server file with UPDATECONFIG entry type

Use this entry type to add or remove strings within lines in the integrated server file.

Set configuration defaults with the SETDEFAULTS entry type

Use this entry type to set the default values for certain keywords. i5/OS uses the defaults only when processing ADDCONFIG and UPDATECONFIG entries in the current file member.

An entry is one occurrence of an entry type. Each entry contains a series of keywords that are followed by equal signs (=) and values for those keywords.

Format guidelines

• Source physical file record length must be 92 bytes.

• A line can have only one entry, but an entry can occupy multiple lines.

• You can use blank spaces between the entry type and the keyword, around the equal sign, and after the commas.

• You can use blank lines between entries and between keywords.

  Keywords

• You can put entry keywords in any order.

• Use a comma after all keyword values except the last one in the entry.

• Enclose keyword values in single quotation marks if they contain commas, blank spaces, asterisks, equal signs, or single quotation marks.

• When you use keyword values that contain single quotation marks, use two single quotation marks to represent a quotation mark within the value.

• Keyword value strings can have a maximum length of 1024 characters.

• Keyword values can span lines, but enclose the value in single quotation marks. The value includes leading and trailing blanks in each line.

  Comments

• Begin comments with an asterisk (*).

• You can put a comment on its own line or on a line with other text that is not part of the comment.
