si putdbfile [--encoding=value] [--input=value] [--hostname=server] [--port=number] [--password=password] [--user=name] [(-?|--usage)] [(-N|--no)] [(-Y|--yes)] [--[no]batch] [--cwd=directory] [--forceConfirm=[yes|no]] [(-g|--gui)] [--quiet] [--settingsUI=[gui|default]] [--status=[none|gui|default]] [(-F file|--selectionFile=file)] string...
Description
Although PTC recommends editing the si.properties file in the GUI, you can retrieve the si.properties file from the database for manual editing using the si getdbfile command. Once you are finished editing this file, you can store it in the database again using the si putdbfile command.
* 
Access to configuration files is based on permissions. An administrator with the AdminServer or DebugServer permission for workflows and documents can edit workflow and document configuration files, an administrator with the AdminServer or DebugServer permission for configuration management can edit configuration management files, and an administrator with the Windchill RV&S Server AdminServer or DebugServer permission can edit all configuration files.
