Configuration.xml file
Spotfire Server configurations are stored in the Spotfire database and can be exported to a configuration.xml file for editing or sharing.
Certain configuration properties in the Spotfire system are rarely used and cannot be set using commands. To use these properties you must manually edit the configuration.xml file. You may also want to work in the configuration file to configure features that require complex commands, such as enabling several authentication options.
The configuration settings can also be exported to file for backup purposes, to be imported into another cluster to set up multiple clusters with similar settings, or to be sent to TIBCO Support for inspection.
You can examine a read-only copy of the configuration.xml file on the XML View page of the configuration tool.
If you export the configuration file, make changes, and then import it back to the database, it becomes the active configuration.
- Manually editing the Spotfire Server configuration file
Before editing the Spotfire Server configuration file you must export its contents to an XML file.
