Using the xconfmanager Utility
The xconfmanager is a command line utility that you can run to add, remove, or modify properties in Windchill property files that are used for your defining your system.
Windchill uses some property files to manage internal system activities that you should never modify, including the following:
associationRegistry.properties
descendentRegistry.properties
modelRegistry.properties
moduleRegistry.properties
moduleDir.properties
debug.properties
The xconfmanager utility saves your changes in the site.xconf file and provides an option to generate updated property files using the updates in the site.xconf file. The site.xconf file contains the changes made to Windchill property files starting with the installation and continuing with each use of the xconfmanager utility. The site.xconf file is located in the directory where Windchill is installed.
Anyone with write access to the XCONF and property files under the Windchill installation directory can successfully run the xconfmanager utility.
The following sections describe how to enter the xconfmanager command and how to set property values and list property information using the command. The last section describes the other xconfmanager options that may be useful when running your Windchill solution.
The xconfmanager utility is located in the bin directory where your Windchill solution is installed. For example, if Windchill solution is installed in the C:\ptc\Windchill directory, then the utility is in the C:\ptc\Windchill\bin directory.
Before executing the xconfmanager command, set up your environment by using the windchill shell. To use the shell, either execute the shortcut (on a Windows system) or enter the following on the command line:
windchill shell
Then from the new window that opens, you can enter the xconfmanager command, as described in the next section.
