Configure the pronunciation feature

Edit settings in the profiles-policy.xml file to configure the pronunciation feature.

for information about how to start the wsadmin tool.

When the pronunciation feature is enabled, users can upload a recording of their name being pronounced correctly to their profile. We can enable or disable this feature for specific profile types. We can also configure access control settings for the pronunciation feature according to profile type.

The following steps provide information about the properties that we can set for the pronunciation feature, and the access levels and scopes that we can configure.

1. Check out the profiles-policy.xml file:
   cd app_server_root/profiles/Dmgr01/bin
   ./wsadmin.sh -lang jython
   execfile("profilesAdmin.py")
   ProfilesConfigService.checkOutPolicyConfig("</tmp>", "cell_name")

   To get cell name...

   print AdminControl.getCell()

2. Open the profiles-policy.xml file using a text editor, from the temporary directory to which it was checked out.

3. Edit the following properties for the pronunciation feature as needed.

   profile.pronunciation

   Enable or disable profile pronunciation feature.

   This property takes a string value. Possible values include:

   • true. Enable the pronunciation feature for users with the specified profile type. The user interface displays an icon for the user's pronunciation file and provides options for editing the file.

   • false. Disable the pronunciation feature for users with the specified profile type. The feature does not display in the user interface.

   profile.pronunciation.update

   Controls user access to update the profile pronunciation file.

   Access levels for this property can be defined using one of the following scopes:

   • none. No one can update the pronunciation file of users with the specified profile type.

   • self. Users with the specified profile type can update their own pronunciation file. Administrators can also update the pronunciation file of users with the specified profile type.

   For example:

   <feature name="profile.pronunciation">
      <profileType type="default" enabled="true">
         <acl name="profile.pronunciation.update" scope="self" />
      </profileType>
   </feature>

   This code sample enables the pronunciation feature for users with the default profile type, but restricts the ability to update pronunciation files to profile owners and administrators.

4. Save the changes and check the profiles-policy.xml file back in :
   ProfilesConfigService.checkInPolicyConfig()

5. To exit the wsadmin client, type exit at the prompt.

6. Stop and restart the Profiles server.
