Overriding values in properties files

The customer_overrides.properties file contains name-value pairs that either provide values or override existing values in ITXA properties files.

Properties are set during the deployment process and their values generally do not need to be changed.. However, you can edit the customer_overrides.properties file to set overrides when necessary, and those override values persist when software updates are applied.

The customer_overrides.properties file is located under the installation directory.

Clustered installations: In a clustered installation, there is a separate customer_overrides.properties file for each node.

    Example: The minimumAsyncChildThreads property is located in the spe.properties file. An entry in the customer_overrides.properties file to increase that minimum might appear as follows:
    spe.minimumAsyncChildThreads=15
