2.1.1 Editing the system definition files

(1) Before you start

• Terminate the SLM - Manager or SLM - UR whose system definition file you will be editing.

  For details about the termination method, see (5) Procedure for terminating SLM - Manager in 3.1.1 Starting SLM - Manager, or (5) Procedure for terminating SLM - UR in 3.1.2 Starting SLM - UR.

(2) Procedure

To edit a system definition file:

1. Edit the system definition file.

   The system definition file is stored at the following location:

   For SLM - Manager:

   SLM-Manager-installation-folder\mgr\conf\jp1itslm.properties

   For SLM - UR:

   SLM-UR-installation-folder\ur\conf\jp1itslmur.properties

   For a list of the definitions that can be edited, see 2.1.2 Editable definitions.

   If you are editing properties that are common to both SLM - Manager and SLM - UR, make sure that you edit both system definition files.

2. Start the SLM - Manager or SLM - UR whose system definition file has been edited.

   For details about how to start SLM - Manager or SLM - UR, see 3.1.1 Starting SLM - Manager or 3.1.2 Starting SLM - UR.

The system definition file has been edited and the SLM settings have been changed.

(3) Supplementary information

• A system definition file definition is specified in the following format:

  property=value

• Use ISO/IEC 646 character codes for system definition files; do not use Unicode characters. Do not include any Unicode escape sequences.

• Changes made to a system definition file are not applied until the next time SLM - Manager or SLM - UR is started (or restarted).

• If an invalid keyword that is not defined in SLM is specified in a system definition file, SLM ignores the specified keyword and continues processing.

• If an invalid value, such as an out-of-range value, is specified in a system definition file, the target SLM - Manager or SLM - UR might terminate during startup processing.

  However, for properties related to output of logs (properties beginning with logger), a specified invalid value, such as an out-of-range value, will be changed to the default value and SLM - Manager or SLM - UR processing will continue.

• Paths specified in a definition file cannot exceed 100 characters. The following characters can be used:

  • A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9, space, underscore (_), period (.), left and right parentheses (()), and the path separator character (\)

    Note that two consecutive path separator characters (\\) must be specified, as indicated in the following.

    Example specification: C:\\Program Files\\HITACHI\\JP1ITSLM\\ur\\accesslog

  None of the following are permitted:

  • Double-byte characters

  • Characters that Windows does not allow in file or folder names (\, /, :, *, ?, ", <, >, |)

  • NTFS stream names that contain a colon (:), except as a separator after the drive name

  • Reserved device names (AUX, CON, NUL, PRN, CLOCK$, COM1 through COM9, LPT1 through LPT9)

  • Folder names that start with u

  • Paths that include #

  • Paths that end with \\

  • Paths on a network drive
