Configuration Property Files

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

Symphony uses the configuration files in the following table to ensure successful deployment in your operating environment. You can edit many of the properties and options in these files. You can edit them in /etc/zoomdata as described in Edit a Symphony Configuration File.

insightsoftware discourages changing properties in the /opt/zoomdata/conf directory (Linux) or <install-path>/conf (Windows). Copy the files you want to change to the /etc/zoomdata directory (Linux) or <install-path>/conf-modify (Windows) and change them there. This will ensure that your changes are not overwritten when Symphony is next upgraded.

Quickly determine what changes you've made to a properties file using diff in Linux. For example:

diff /opt/zoomdata/conf/edc-<connector-name>.properties /etc/zoomdata/<edc-<connector-name>.properties

or

diff /opt/zoomdata/conf/zoomdata.properties /etc/zoomdata/zoomdata.properties

For Windows environments, use your preferred diff utility to compare the differences between your original and updated property files.
