The local_server.properties file overrides the settings in
server.properties and is only ever read from the directory in
which the EMS server is running. To locate the files in
and override the
the following sequence:
1 EMS reads the
local_server.properties
setting which it then uses to locate
EMS_FILEHOME
2 Using
EMS_FILEHOME
3 EMS then re-reads
server.properties
While most of the contents of server.properties must be shared
between both servers, some settings, such as those for Server Failover,
file contains the settings for the EMS
server.properties
, EMS reads the
server.properties
local_server.properties
.
EMS_FILEHOME
settings, EMS reads the files in
file to obtain the
server.propertie
file.
to override any settings in
