Installing a preconfigured controller component
You can apply custom configuration settings when you install the controller component.
About this task
The property values in the trc_controller.cfg are global and are the same for all users who run the controller. However, a user can create a local configuration. The values in the users' local configuration are used when they run the controller and override the global values. To enforce the global property value, you can set a property to mandatory so that a user cannot edit the property in the Configuration Window in the controller UI. The mandatory global property overrides the local property.
- Open the trc_controller.cfg file.
- Copy the property name and add .mandatory = true to the end.
For example, to make the Enable Address History property mandatory so that it cannot be edited in the Configuration Window.
enable.address.history=false
enable.address.history.mandatory=true - Save the file.
After you save the trc_controller.cfg file, install the controller.
- Preconfigure the controller for a Windows™ operating system installation
- Copy the trc_controller.cfg file to the same directory as the trc_controller_setup.exe or trc_controller.msi file.
- Run the controller installation file.
