Modifying the Installation Configuration File

You can modify the installation configuration file by editing the variables and values described in the following table. This table has four columns showing variable names, valid values (if applicable), contents, and comments.

Table 1–1 Installation Configuration File Variables


Variable Name	Valid Values (if applicable)	Content	Comments
Build ID		The string of characters following the distribution in the STATE_BEGIN and STATE_END sections. This value is automatically generated.	No need to alter this value unless installing a different distribution file than the one that produced the configuration file. To find the build ID, enter `distribution_filename -id` at the command prompt.
`defaultInstallDirectory`		Default installation directory path
