The WebFOCUS Client installation creates configuration files, several of which contain settings that you can use to customize WebFOCUS for your environment. You can customize many of these files manually, but it is recommended that you use the Administration Console to edit the settings instead.
Note: It is strongly recommended that you update configuration settings through the Administration Console, rather than by manually editing files, whenever possible. The Administration Console automatically validates parameter values and encrypts passwords. In some cases, however, settings are read-only in the Console and can only be edited manually, because modifying those particular settings is strongly discouraged.
The following table describes the configuration files that may be customized using the Administration Console.
