The shared configuration file, acserverconfig.xml, contains the server configuration templates that the nodes in a cluster use. In a typical BIRT iHub installation, the location of acserverconfig.xml is AC_CONFIG_HOME.

Each node uses a single server configuration template. The names of the default templates are small, medium, large, and disable. The system administrator can assign the disable configuration template to a cluster node to prevent the node from performing any processing. By default, all the resource groups in the disable template are configured to run no Factory processes. For example, assign the disable template to a node that runs only the Monitor service.

Table 7‑4, Table 7‑5, and Table 7‑6 describe the Reporting, Viewing, and Integration service properties that the small, medium, and large server configuration templates contain. The tables show when a property change takes effect, and include the default value for the property for each of the templates. If a template does not contain a property, the node uses the default value. To use a non-default value, add the property to the template.
