Editing properties is an essential activity in configuring content replication. If you are not setting properties through a graphical user interface or in a mapping file, you must add or edit properties with the xconfmanager utility. For more information, see Using the xconfmanager Utility.

The following list describes the properties that are most relevant to replication, categorized by their area of influence. All of these properties are present in all wt.properties files on master and remote sites, but many of the properties are relevant only to master site or remote site servers. Some of the properties control the placement or behavior of log files, which can be important in troubleshooting.

If you have not planned the details of the content replication sites, you may not be able to provide correct values for some properties until you have completed the setup process.
