WebSphere® eXtreme Scale is configured
by a collection of XML and properties files.
Server properties file
The server properties file contains several properties
that define different settings for your server, such as trace settings,
logging, and security configuration. The server properties file is
used by both catalog service and container servers in both stand-alone
servers and servers that are hosted in WebSphere Application Server.
Client properties file
Create a properties file based on your requirements for WebSphere eXtreme Scale client processes.
REST data service properties file
To configure the REST data service, edit the properties
file for REST and define the required entity schema for a data grid.
ObjectGrid descriptor XML file
To configure WebSphere eXtreme Scale, use an ObjectGrid descriptor XML file and the ObjectGrid API.
Entity metadata descriptor XML file
The entity metadata descriptor
file is an XML file that
is used to define an entity schema for WebSphere eXtreme Scale. Define all of the
entity metadata in the XML file, or define the entity metadata as
annotations on the entity Java™ class
file. The primary use is for entities that cannot use Java annotations.
Security descriptor XML file
Use a security descriptor XML file to configure an eXtreme Scale deployment
topology with security enabled. You can use the elements in this file
to configure different aspects of security.
Spring descriptor XML file
Use a Spring descriptor XML file to configure and integrate eXtreme Scale with
Spring.
Liberty profile configuration files
You can specify server properties and Liberty web feature
properties for WebSphere eXtreme Scale applications
that run in the Liberty profile.
