Instance Settings Property Sheet

The Instance Settings property sheet allows you to specialize an appliance instance for its role in the application.

The instance settings apply only to one appliance instance. They override any defaults specified in the class of the appliance. Most instance settings have their default values defined in the appliance class. When you change these values, they display in the property sheet in bold. In addition, you can redirect a setting to allow its value to obtained from the settings of the containing assembly. The redirected settings display in blue.

To access the Instance Settings property sheet, double-click an appliance or right-click the appliance shape and click Attributes, Resources, User Volumes, Property Values or Notes from the menu.

Notes:

• When the appliance instance is contained in an assembly that is not the main application assembly, the instance settings specialize the instance for its role in that assembly. The assembly itself may be further specialized for its role in its containing assembly, recursively going up to the entire application.
• The Instance Settings property sheet is read-only if you opened it on an instance within a catalog assembly. To learn how to modify catalog classes, refer to Grid User Guide
• If settings need to be applied to all instances of an appliance, you can use the mechanism described in Redirecting Properties. If the settings in the appliance class needs to be changed, refer to the Class Editor - Simple Appliances in this section.
