1. Indicates whether the CCMS Output Generator needs to be restarted if changes are made to files in this directory.

The CCMS Output Generator directory structure is organized so that your configuration changes are not lost between upgrades.

Files that you need to modify are provided in one of the following formats:
  • *.empty files (for example, corba.properties.empty): Many configuration files are provided in the initial installation with the .empty suffix. Use these files as a template, and remove the .empty suffix when saving them (keeping the original .empty file unmodified for backup).

    The *.empty files are required by CCMS Output Generator. You must configure them otherwise CCMS Output Generator will not work.

  • *-client.xml.orig files (for example, data/conductor-client.xml.orig): Some of the Ant conductor files are provided in the initial installation with the -client.xml.orig suffix. Use these files as a template, and rename the -client suffix to your company name (for example, conductor-acme.xml).

    The *.orig files are optional.

  • *.orig files in the conf/client directory (for example, conf/client/outputtypes.xml.orig): The configuration files in the conf/client directory are provided with the .orig suffix. Use these files as a template, and remove the .orig suffix when saving them (keeping the original .orig file unmodified for backup).

    The *.orig files are optional.
