To administrate the functions of the repository, the following files located in the program root folder are used:
◆Configuration file .config specifies the set of files and the parameters of the updates server. The file has a text format, its structure is described below in Appendices F1. The Syntax of the Configuration File .config and F2. The Meaning of .config File Instructions.
◆Status file .id displays the generalized state of a product (revision number and incremental number of transaction). The format is described below in Appendix F3. .id Files.
|
When setting up interserver links for product mirroring (read p.Peculiarities of a Network with Several Servers), please remember that configuration files are not the part of the product and therefore are not properly handled by the mirror system. To avoid errors during the updating ◆for peer Servers, use identical configuration, ◆for subordinate Servers, disable synchronizing of components through HTTP protocol or keep the configuration identical. |
|
After the configuration file and the status file have been edited, reboot the Server. |
