Hi Rahulkad,

Please see some resources below which should get you started. The changes available in the server.conf are extensive, and every server and file structure can differ, so detailing exact commands and changes would be more guesswork.

 

Linux Commands

Server.Conf

Configuration Server Doc

 

Regards,

Craig

Hi @rahulkad29786 ,

 

The server Config file will be present in the "Conf" Folder of your "Installation Directory" of your Server.

 

So In order to access the Directory you have to use below command on your server

 

ls "{Installation Directory Path Variable}/Conf/serverConf.xml and then you can open it and do the required changes.

 

Please find the documentation Link attached for your reference

 Hello @rahulkad29786,

one does not change serverConf.xml you only change your instances configuration. How it works on server start acc merges serverConf with your instance conf and all settings are promoted to the final config it uses on the runtime.

 

Changes that are common for all instances are done in config-default.xml
Changes that only affect one particular instance are done to config-instance.xml
here are the commands you need to find configurations on linux (debian)

 

 

#switch to neolane user su - neolane #navigate to conf folder cd nl6/conf #depends on linux, to list files you can use ll or more generic ls -lah #you can see all the configs serverConf.xml #main shared config config-yourinstancename.xml #your instance config start stop processes only for your instance, override serverConf.xml settings config-default.xml #multiinstance config start stop processes for all instances

 

 

 

Take a look at documentation as well:
