When you install WebSphere Business Integration Event Broker, the installation program creates a number of entries in a registry. Further changes are made by some configuration updates (for example, when you create a broker).
On Windows, the system registry is used; on Linux and UNIX systems, equivalent values are stored within the installation directory structure. Do not alter or remove these entries unless instructed to do so by IBM Service.
The table below describes the main Windows registry
entries. These are created under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM\WebSphereMQIntegrator.

Entries are also created under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI for the installed database drivers for Oracle and Sybase, which contain driver locations and parameters, and an entry is added under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application\BIPv500 for Event Log information, where v**** is the current four-digit product version number.
