Use the options from the server properties file to configure WebSphere® eXtreme Scale servers that run in
the Liberty profile.
The server properties file contains several properties
that define different settings for your server, such as security configuration.
The server properties file is used by both catalog service and container
servers in both stand-alone servers and servers that are hosted in WebSphere Application Server.
Configure the
server.xml file
using the same configuration that you might use for a stand-alone
server configuration. In the
server.xml file,
specify the file path to the properties file in a serverProps attribute
inside the com.ibm.ws.xs.server.config element. See the following
example from the
server.xml file:
<server>
...
<com.ibm.ws.xs.server.config ... serverProps="/path/to/myServerProps.properties" ... />
</server>
Some properties that were formerly
configurable in a stand-alone environment must be configured using
the
Liberty profile configuration
instead of the
eXtreme Scale configuration
mechanisms.
- Logging and tracing settings must be specified
using the logging
element in the server.xml file, rather than being
specified in the eXtreme Scale server
properties file or com.ibm.ws.xs.server.config element.
- The
working directory, like logging and tracing, is a server-wide
setting, and therefore, they must be specified in a server-wide way.
If the previous settings are specified incorrectly,
eXtreme Scale logs a warning message,
which indicates that the settings are ignored.
