Configuring properties files

You can modify the properties file values for Service Management Unite Performance Management after installation.

About this task

During installation, you can configure the DASH_ITMCollector, DASH_SA, and DASH_IOALA properties files for Service Management Unite Performance Management using IBM Installation Manager.

After installation, you can configure Tivoli® Directory Integrator using the Tivoli Directory Integrator configuration editor. The configuration editor is GUI-based and allows you to edit assembly lines and customize how data is presented in Dashboard Application Services Hub (DASH) V3.1.2.1.

This topic guides you to configure the properties files after installation.

Procedure

Go to the solution directory. The default directory is /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/DASH_ITMCollector.
Edit the following fields in the DASH_ITMCollector properties file.
itm.provider

Location of the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server.

itm.url

Location of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server.

itm.user

The Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server user ID.

itm.password

The IBM® Tivoli Monitoring user password
If you are using the default solution directory, /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/DASH_ITMCollector (SOLDIR), enter the following commands to encrypt the password that is specified in the DASH_ITMCollector properties file.
```
/opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/serverapi/cryptoutils.sh -input /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/DASH_ITMCollector/DASH_ITMCollector.properties
-output /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/DASH_ITMCollector/DASH_ITMCollector.properties -mode encrypt_props 
-keystore /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/testserver.jks -storepass server -alias server
```
If you are not using the default solution directory, you see the following command where you replace SOLDIR with your chosen solution directory:
```
-input SOLDIR/DASH_ITMCollector.properties -output SOLDIR/DASH_ITMCollector.properties
```
The Tivoli Directory Integrator solutions directory TDI_SOLDIR defaults to /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1/DASH_ITMCollector and the Tivoli Directory Integrator installation directory TDI_INSTDIR defaults to /opt/IBM/TDI/V7.1.1.
```
TDI_INSTDIR/serverapi/cryptoutils.sh
-input TDI_SOLDIR/DASH_ITMCollector/DASH_ITMCollector.properties
-output TDI_SOLDIR/DASH_ITMCollector/DASH_ITMCollector.properties -mode encrypt_props
-keystore TDI_INSTDIR/testserver.jks -storepass server -alias server
```
You must replace TDI_SOLDIR with your chosen Tivoli Directory Integrator solution directory and replace TDI_INSTDIR with your chosen Tivoli Directory Integrator installation directory.
Edit the following fields in the DASH_SA properties file.
sa.user

The SMU functional user ID that is used by TDI to access to SA domains. The default value is eezdmn.

sa.password
