Introduction to Abiquo Configuration Properties

The platform stores the configuration in the abiquo.properties file in Java properties format.

There is one file on each server of the Abiquo platform (Abiquo Server, Remote Services, V2V Services). By default this file is located in the /opt/abiquo/config/ folder.

The Abiquo Installer will create configuration files for your installation and example configuration files can be found in the directory /opt/abiquo/config/examples. 

The platform uses the default values if you do not set the properties. However, some default configuration options may also be set outside of the Abiquo platform, for example, in the hypervisor. 

To change the configuration options:

1. Edit the abiquo.properties file and add the properties you wish to change, then specify the new values. 
   1. Check carefully to ensure you have the correct values
   2. Check that there is no white space around the properties
2. After you edit the file, restart the abiquo-tomcat service for the changes to take effect
