WebClient Administrator's Guide

This section contains advanced guides for the configuration and administration of a migration-center WebClient.

Changing application.properties

There are parameters in the application.properties file that can change the WebClient's behavior. This file can be found under the following folder in the Tomcat where the WebClient was installed: \webapps\mc-rest-api\WEB-INF\classes

After changing a parameter, restart the WebClient service and refresh the WebClient browser pages.

Restricted Mode (pwd.restricted-mode)

When the WebClient runs in Restricted mode any edit to a scanner's or importer's parameters will clear any password parameters that importer has. The same happens when copying an existing scanner or importer, all password fields are cleared.

This feature is useful in environments where the person executing the migration jobs should not be able to modify existing jobs without having to re-enter the password for connecting to that source or target system.

To enable Restricted Mode you need to set the property pwd.restricted-mode to true.

Access to the application.properties file should be limited to prevent anyone without permission turning off Restricted Mode.

CSV export - custom multivalue separator

You can change the default separator for multi-value attributes when exporting objects to CSV, from the default ; to any character or set of characters.

Set the new separator to the export.csv.inner-separator property.
