Sun Java System Portal Server 7.2 Installation and Configuration Guide

Understanding the psconfig Command

When you run the psconfig command, you specify a configuration XML file. You can customize the configuration XML file based on your requirements. Sample configuration XML files are provided at the PortalServer-base/samples/psconfig directory. To know more about the files that you need to customize, read the PortalServer-base/SUNWportal/samples/psconfig/ReadMe.txt. To customize the files, you modify values and replace the tokens.


Note –

If you run psconfig command on a machine, where Access Manager is not installed, then you need to set the environment variable for JAVA_HOME before you invoke psconfig.


The syntax of the psconfig command is as follows:

psconfig --config configuration-xml-file

psconfig --unconfig configuration-xml-file

The location of the psconfig utility is PortalServer-base/SUNWportal/bin.

The subsequent sections in this chapter contain information about customizing a sample configuration XML file if the sample configuration XML files do not meet your requirements.
