Miscellaneous Parameters

Miscellaneous parameters refer to parameters that do not fit into the other categories.

The following table lists the miscellaneous parameters:
Parameter Default Description
AlertCheckInterval 60 Defines the interval in seconds between checks to see if the Alert Cache needs to be updated. Valid values are from 1 to 60 seconds, and the default value is 60 seconds. You should change this parameter only if you need to lower the elapsed time between when an alert is added, deleted or updated, and when the alert cache is updated.
AssignViewEmailContentsRight admin This parameter is not used.
AuditDir The directory defined during installation Defines the directory where MFT audit files are located.
CacheTimeStampInitYieldSec 120 seconds plus a random number between 1 - 60 seconds Defines the amount of time that Internet Server and Command Center waits at startup time before monitoring for cache updates and inactive hosts.
CacheTimeStampIntervalSec 30 seconds Defines how frequently Internet Server and Command Center check for cache updates. It also defines how frequently Internet Server and Command Center check for inactive hosts. For more information on deleting inactive servers, see the CacheTimeStampRemoveHostThreshold.
CacheTimeStampRemoveHostThreshold 20 intervals Defines how many times an Internet Server or Command Center allows a server to be inactive before removing the host from the database. MFT checks if a server is active based on the CacheTimeStampIntervalSec parameter. If a server is inactive for the number of times defined by this parameter, the host is removed from the database. This parameter is used only when the Internet Server or Command Instance is a dynamic Cloud instance started with the COM_TIBCO_MFT_CE_TEMPLATENAME environment variable.
Note: Only Command Centers or Internet Servers with the administrator service installed check for inactive servers.
DefaultTransferClient browser Defines the default transfer client.

The value of browser indicate the default transfer client is the browser client. It is good practice to use the browser client by default.

The value of java indicate the default transfer client is the Java client.

EmbeddedServer true This parameter should always be set to true.
ExpiredFilesLog ./ExpiredFilesLog.txt This parameter is not used.
HTTPOnlyCookies True

If set to true, all cookies created by MFT will have the HTTPOnly attribute set. By default, httponly is set for MFT generated cookies.

The cookies that do NOT have httponly set do not contain any privileged or sensitive information.

This parameter is used to identify the MFT server in the database tables. This should not be changed without guidance from Technical Support.

The value of true indicates that MFT performs an audit search when the Search Audits page is first configured.

The value of false indicates that MFT does not perform an audit search when the Search Audits page is first configured. Searches will be on demand when the user defines the selection criteria and click Search.

SendGlobalEmail true This parameter is not used.
SendMFTTrustedCerts false True: When an FTPS client connects to the MFT FTPS Server, MFT returns a list of certificates that are defined to MFT as "Trusted Certificates". False: MFT does not send any trusted certificates to the FTPS Client.
