To disable Instant Messaging service for new users

1. Open the resource.properties file in a text editor.

   The resource.properties file is located by default in the original (standard) location in the Delegated Administrator installation path:

   da-base/data/WEB-INF/classes/sun/comm/cli/server/servlet

2. Change the value of the im-provision property from true to false.

   By default, this value is true.

   For example:

   im-provision=false

3. Redeploy the edited resource.properties file to the Web container used by the Delegated Administrator server.

   Before the change can take effect, you must run the script that deploys the customized resource.properties file to your Web container.

   For instructions on how to deploy a customized properties file to a particular Web container, see To Deploy a Customized Configuration File.
