Steps

1.  Open the global.properties ( or solution.properties) of the SDI Server.

2.  At the top of the file, locate the '!include' statements

  ##  ## This file is read by ibmditk/ibmdisrv on startup  ##  ## Enter = to set system properties.  ## Enter !include  to include other files  ##  

3. Define the location to the custom property file(s).  This can either be an absolute or relative path reference to the file(s).  The SDI Server will search for relative references starting in the Solution Directory.

For example, we define 2 property file references.

4. In the custom property file(s), use valid key/value pairs assignment.

5. Restart the SDI Config Editor and SDI Server instance.

6. To verify the new properties were loaded by the server, review the Solution-properties store located in the Server Property Store Editor.  

For example, the propName1 has been loaded from Custom.properties and propName2 has been loaded from L2.properties.

7. To access these new key/pair values the object can be access by either of the following methods:

•   system.getTDIProperty("propName1")

•   system.getTDIProperty(“Solution-Properties","propName1")
