Appendix B. Global Configuration File
B.1. jbossesb-properties.xml
The
jbossesb-properties.xml file is the JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform's global configuration file. Many tasks will require you to edit this file. The location of this file varies depending on how the system has been installed. If you have installed a server deployment, this file will be located at SOA_ROOT/jboss-as/server/PROFILE/deployers/esb.deployer/jbossesb-properties.xml, while standalone clients can access it directly through the class-path.
B.2. Global Configuration File Reference
The global configuration file (
SOA_ROOT/jboss-as/server/PROFILE/deployers/esb.deployer/jbossesb-properties.xml) is split into sections, each concerned with a specific area of configuration. A named property section contains one or more properties which are used to configure the behavior of the ESB, and one property section can "depend" on another section - the dependency specifies which sections are loaded by the PropertyManager first.
core
