Working with server configuration files
This topic show how to manage application server configuration files.
About this task
Application server configuration files define the available application servers, their configurations, and their contents.
A configuration repository stores configuration data.
By default, configuration repositories reside in the config subdirectory of the profile root directory.
Avoid trouble: Do not store any non-default
XML or XML backup files under the profile_root/config directory.
Limit the config directory and subdirectories
to valid default WebSphere Application Server configuration
files. A variety of symptoms and exceptions are possible if non-default
files are stored in this directory.
You should periodically save changes to your administrative configuration. You can change the default locations of configuration files, as needed.
