Dell 1.3.0.0 manual Editing Existing Configuration Files, Configuration Details

Page 42

NOTE: The required names for each of the configuration files for each platform should be WE8S - WE8SConfig.xml, WES7 - WES7Config.xml, and WES2009 - WES2009Config.xml respectively. If the thin client system is a domain user, then the name of the configuration file should be administrator.xml to enable the domain user client systems to download the configurations.

If you are using the WCM Client to import the files, then you can save the configuration files in a local or remote folder location that is easily accessible by the thin clients.

Editing Existing Configuration Files

To edit an existing configuration file:

1Launch the WCM Application GUI and click the Open an Existing Configuration option in the Details pane. You can also click the Open menu to open an existing configuration file.

2Navigate to the location to select your configuration file. For more information on the default location, see step 4 in Creating New Configuration Files.

3Modify the configuration details and click the Save menu to save the file. You can choose to save the file with the same name or with a different name.
