Properties

Properties are used to put the run time in a desired condition for use, and are designed to work together. Many properties have a default value. Set values for these properties only if you need to change the default. You can set properties at the level of the system and at the level of a solution.

Connectivity configuration properties
Configure your solution connectivity in the server.xml file of your runtime servers.
Java virtual machine options
The Java™ virtual machine that executes the Liberty runtime can be customized for each type of server. You configure a server JVM by editing the jvm.options file.
Persistence configuration properties
You must set a data source name and type to configure persistence in the server.xml file of your runtime servers.
Server bootstrap properties
The Liberty runtime environment operates from a set of built-in configuration settings. When you create an Insight Server, you might need to specify configuration properties to modify the default settings. You configure the server by editing either the server.xml file or the bootstrap.properties file to specify properties that are needed before the main configuration is processed, and to define variables that are used in the main configuration.
Solution properties
You set solution properties to configure the behavior and characteristics of agents at solution level.
System properties
The propertyManager set command sets properties that modify the behavior and characteristics of the server. Depending on the scope of the specific property, the values are applied to the entire system, all solutions, all agents, or all aggregates.
Test driver properties
A test driver helps you perform solution testing and debugging, manage entities, determine the system and solution status, and create and submit events to Insight Server. To ensure that a test driver instance can connect to a server, create a testdriver.properties file and add properties and to modify the behavior of the test driver.
