You can modify the site information that is displayed on the right side of the Login page.

About this task

You must perform customization tasks on a primary node.

The site information that is provided by IBM is delivered as an HTML template, nls/html/LoginPageInfoContent.html, and a properties file, nls/LoginPageInfoContent.properties. The properties file contains text that is substituted into the HTML template. To customize the site information on the Login page, you can take one of the following actions:

Procedure

  1. Download the LoginText.properties file from the ui/nls folder.
    1. From the top level of the Appliance Dashboard, click Configure > Advanced Configuration > Custom File Management.
    2. From the All Files tab, click directories > ui > nls.
    3. Type LoginPageInfoContent.properties in the search box. The list of LoginPageInfoContent.properties files is displayed.
    4. Select LoginPageInfoContent.properties and click Download.
    5. Save the file.
    6. Edit the properties in the LoginPageInfoContent.properties file to provide the text that you want to be displayed on the right side of the Login page.
    7. Save the file.
    8. Upload the LoginPageInfoContent.properties file. From the All Files tab, click directories > ui > config.
    9. Select LoginPageInfoContent.properties and click Upload.
    10. Click Browse to select the LoginPageInfoContent.properties file that you customized.
    11. Click Save Configuration to upload the file.
  2. Use one of these alternative methods.
    • Create a custom version of the nls/html/LoginPageInfoContent.html template and modify it to use whatever HTML formatting and template substitutions that you want. Then, create a custom copy of the nls/LoginPageInfoContent.properties file and modify or replace the properties in it to provide the necessary substitutions for your custom HTML template.
    • If you do not want to use an HTML template with substitutions, you can create a custom copy of the nls/html/LoginPageInfoContent.html template file. Then, replace the template substitution references with the actual site information text that you want to display.
