Sun Java System RFID Software 3.0 Administration Guide

This appendix provides sample configuration files for the configuration of an Execution Agent. The configuration is contained in an XML configuration file for each Execution Agent. It might be necessary to create and edit these configuration files manually. By default, the RFID Event Manager is configured to run with one Execution Agent.

---

Sample Default RFID Configuration Files

• The default configuration file on a Solaris system is - /etc/opt/SUNWrfid/RfidConfig.xml, where /etc/opt/SUNWrfid is the install_config_dir.
• The default configuration file on a Linux system is - /etc/opt/sun/rfidem/RfidConfig.xml, where /etc/opt/sun/rfidem is the install_config_dir.

The Execution Agent configuration syntax is illustrated in the following diagram.

FIGURE C-1 Configuration File Hierarchy

The name and value properties used are case sensitive. For instance, a value of EPC is treated differently from Epc.

Properties appropriate to each of the configurable entities (adapters, filters and connectors) are shown in other appendices in this book.

• Refer to Appendix A for properties information for the supported reader adapters.
• Refer to Appendix B for properties information for the supported filters and connectors (also sometimes called loggers).
• Refer to CODE EXAMPLE C-1 for an example of a typical xml file segment for a reader adapter.
• Refer to TABLE C-1 for an example of a typical xml file segment for a filter definition.
