System Configuration File

Scope

• All Installations

• Current Installation (default)

• Current Database

You can configure most items at the above “scopes”. Any item configured on higher/broader scope has priority over the same item on a lower/narrower scope. Assigning higher priority to higher/broader scopes allows us to override any and all individual installations/databases configurations with a particular configuration of our choosing. However it does not allow us to set a default configuration for all installations/databases and then separately configure each one where desired. That would require NEOSYS to assign priority to lower/narrower scopes – which it doesn’t do.
