Installation properties are recorded in properties files during a deployment and are used as input by future install-related actions. Installation properties are found in the install.properties and maximo.properties files as well as the database. You should only modify properties found in the install.properties file that are related to host names or user IDs. Changing values for other properties can severely impact your ability to perform future installation actions, upgrades and fix pack installations.
