Sample configuration properties files for the BPMConfig command

Edit online

Your Business Automation Workflow installation includes several sample configuration files that are provided as a starting point for your configuration. These sample files are composed of common properties and settings for different Business Automation Workflow environments. Before you begin your configuration, select a sample file that most closely resembles the configuration that you want, copy the file, and customize it to suit your own environment. The BPMConfig command will use the properties file to configure your environment according to the settings that you specify.

Sample properties files

The sample configuration properties files are provided in the install_root/BPM/samples/config folder (where install_root is the installation location of IBM® Business Automation Workflow).

For each of the different product configurations, there is a different folder containing sample configuration files. For example, for an Advanced deployment environment, there is an advanced folder containing a set of sample configuration properties files. Within each folder, there is a set of files that are specific to the different database types and configuration environments. The sample files are named according to the following naming convention: de_type[-environment_type]-topology-database_type-[-WinAuth].properties. The variables used in the naming convention are described in the following list:
  • de_type is one of Standard, Advanced, AdvancedOnly
  • environment_type is PS (Process Server - for Workflow Server) or PC (Process Center - for Workflow Center) (omitted where de_type=AdvancedOnly)
  • topology is one of SingleCluster, ThreeClusters
  • database_type is one of DB2, DB2zOS, SQLServer, Oracle
  • WinAuth is only appended for environments using SQL Server with Windows authentication
For example, the sample configuration properties file for configuring a single cluster Workflow Center environment using DB2® with an Advanced deployment environment is called Advanced-PC-SingleCluster-DB2.properties.

In the install_root/BPM/samples/config/performancetuning folder, there are two sample properties files for performance tuning. The files have the following names:

  • Advanced-PC-ThreeClusters-DB2.properties
  • Advanced-PS-ThreeClusters-DB2.properties
In the install_root/BPM/samples/config/multiplede folder, there are two sample properties files for multiple deployment environments and one sample properties file for multiple buses. The files have the following names:
  • Advanced-PS-ThreeClusters-DB2-MultiDB-De1.properties
  • Advanced-PS-ThreeClusters-DB2-MultiDB-De2.properties
  • Advanced-PS-ThreeClusters-DB2-MultiDB-MultiBus.properties
