Deploy configuration files

This topic describes the Deploy configuration files that can be found in the XL_DEPLOY_SERVER_HOME/conf and XL_DEPLOY_SERVER_HOME/centralConfigurationdirectory.

XL_DEPLOY_SERVER_HOME/conf Folder

Important:

  • As of version 8.6, the system.conf, maven.conf, extensions.conf, planner.conf, and scheduler.conf configuration files have been deprecated. The configuration properties from these files have been moved to the xl block of the xl-deploy.conf file

    Note For maven.conf file, the configuration is moved into xl.artifact.resolver.

    The file xl-deploy.conf.example in the conf folder gives some examples of how to add the configuration files.

  • If you are upgrading to version 8.6 or higher and you have non-default configuration settings in the deprecated files, you must reconfigure these settings in the xl block in the xl-deploy.conf file.
  • As of version 10.1, the Deploy shared configuration files are moved to centralConfiguration directory. Some configuration properties in the conf folder are renamed and redistributed between .yaml files of the centralConfiguration directory. See Central Configuration.

List of configuration files in the XL_DEPLOY_SERVER_HOME/conf folder

Configuration file name Description
deployit-security.xml The file contains configuration settings to configure Deploy to use LDAP.
logback-access.xml Logger configuration file for the access log.
logback.xml Logger configuration file for the Deploy Server or for the worker log.
wrapper-daemon.vm Wrapper script template for Linux.
xld-wrapper.conf.posix Specific Linux-based configuration used for running wrapper.
xld-wrapper.conf.win Specific Windows configuration used for running wrapper.
xld-wrapper-server.conf Configuration used to install a Deploy server as a service.
xld-wrapper.conf.common Common configuration used for running wrapper. This configuration is set of JVM and application system properties. You can customize this file to specify common settings such as paths, log settings, memory allocations, and so on. You can make configuration changes specific to your operating system or Deploy server type using the other xld-wrapper* files provided.
xld-wrapper-worker.conf Configuration used to install a Deploy worker as a service.

Note: From Release 10.1, the configuration files are modified. For more information about the changes to the configuration files, see Central Configuration.

Wrapper configuration files restructured and renamed

With version 9.5, the set of wrapper configuration files provided in the conf directory were restructured and renamed to include a common configuration file as well as specific files for Deploy server type and operating system. You will make most of your customizations in the common wrapper config file (xld-wrapper.conf.common). You can also customize the Deploy server type and operating system configuration in the specific wrapper config files that are provided. If you are upgrading to version 9.5, and had made some customizations to your wrapper config files, you will need to replicate those changes within the new wrapper config files.

Central Configuration Directory

The XL_DEPLOY_SERVER_HOME/centralConfiguration directory contains Digital.ai Deploy shared central configuration files. This directory is a centralized repository for all the application configuration files, which are defined and stored in one place to avoid copying of the files to the workers.

For more information on Central Configuration feature, see Central Configuration.
