Editing the default user values file - sample scenario

About this task

The default user values properties file (defaultuservalues.properties) determines which values appear as the default values on the Add User page in User Management (see Adding a user to User Management).

All parameters in the defaultuservalues.properties file are expressed as name-value pairs in the following format: name=value, for example cn=common name.

Procedure

  1. From the AE Services Management Console main menu, select User Management > Service Admin > Edit Services.
  2. Select defaultuservalues.properties from the list of property files, and click Edit.
  3. On the Edit Service Configuration page, add preferredlanguage=English as a user attribute, and click Apply.

    A message appears stating that if you edited service configuration, you may have to initialize the service for changes to be effective.

    noteNote

    After you edit a service configuration file, you do not have to reinitialize the service.

  4. To verify the default value for the preferred language is English, from the AE Services Management Console main menu, select User Management > User Admin > Add User.

    Your browser displays the Add User page which displays English in the preferredlanguage field.

  5. To change the preferred language value (from English to Spanish, for example), from the AE Services Management Console main menu, select User Management > User Admin > Modify Default User.
  6. From the Modify Default User page, change the value for the preferred language to Spanish.
  7. Select User Management > Service Admin > Reinitialize Service.
