Configuring Instance Manager

How to set Instance Manager properties

Instance Manager has several properties that affects the way it runs. You can create a text file named osim.properties in the olap subdirectory that lists the properties you wish to change. Using a text editor, enter only one setting on a line and use an equal sign (=) to separate the property name from its value.
