Connector
configuration
properties
include
both
standard
configuration
properties
(the
properties
that
all
connectors
have)
and
connector-specific
properties
(properties
that
are
needed
by
the
connector
for
a
specific
application
or
technology).
Because
standard
properties
are
used
by
all
connectors,
you
do
not
need
to
define
those
properties
from
scratch;
Connector
Configurator
incorporates
them
into
your
configuration
file
as
soon
as
you
create
the
file.
However,
you
do
need
to
set
the
value
of
each
standard
property
in
Connector
Configurator.
The
range
of
standard
properties
may
not
be
the
same
for
all
brokers
and
all
configurations.
Some
properties
are
available
only
if
other
properties
are
given
a
specific
value.
The
Standard
Properties
window
in
Connector
Configurator
will
show
the
properties
available
for
your
particular
configuration.
For
connector-specific
properties,
however,
you
need
first
to
define
the
properties
and
then
set
their
values.
You
do
this
by
creating
a
connector-specific
property
template
for
your
particular
adapter.
There
may
already
be
a
template
set
up
in
your
system,
in
which
case,
you
simply
use
that.
If
not,
follow
the
steps
in
“Creating
a
new
template”
on
page
21
to
set
up
a
new
one.
Running
connectors
on
UNIX
Connector
Configurator
runs
only
in
a
Windows
environment.
If
you
are
running
the
connector
in
a
UNIX
environment,
use
Connector
Configurator
in
Windows
to
modify
the
configuration
file
and
then
copy
the
file
to
your
UNIX
environment.
Some
properties
in
the
Connector
Configurator
use
directory
paths,
which
default
to
the
Windows
convention
for
directory
paths.
If
you
use
the
configuration
file
in
a
UNIX
environment,
revise
the
directory
paths
to
match
the
UNIX
convention
for
these
paths.
Select
the
target
operating
system
in
the
toolbar
drop-list
so
that
the
correct
operating
system
rules
are
used
for
extended
validation.
