Now it is time to update the configuration file downloaded in previous step.
We strongly recommend you do not modify any other sections but Profiles.
- Open the file in a good HTML/XML editor
- Locate the
<profiles>element in the file. Each Profile is represented by the<profile>element. - Now you are free to add, delete, or update Profiles that will be created on your machine.
- Do not delete or modify the Live profile (in FMC it is called AllSources). It must be present in the file. All other profiles can be removed.
- If you delete a parent channel, you must delete a complete subtree of its subchannels. Refer to the Profile hierarchy section below for more information.
