When you create a PAS for OpenEdge instance, the properties of the instance are automatically set to certain default values. Each PAS for OpenEdge instance has its own /conf directory that contains multiple configuration files, including:
  • openedge.properties—Contains the properties that must be set to create an instance. See the openedge.properties.README for more information.
  • catalina.properties—Contains the Java properties used by an instance and its ABL Web applications. See the catalina.properties.README for more information.
  • appserver.properties—Linked to the catalina.properties file such that any changes made to catalina.properties are dynamically reflected in appserver.properties. See the appserver.properties.README for more information.
  • jvm.properties—Contains a list of JVM startup command-line options.
  • server.xml—Contains the server features for the instance.
    Note: Progress recommends that you do not edit the server.xml file.

You can edit the property files using the PASMAN and OEPROP utilities in Manage Progress Application Server (PAS) for OpenEdge, and OpenEdge Management in Manage Progress Application Server (PAS) for OpenEdge with OpenEdge Management.
