About CA VM:Director Configuration File Records

You can create comments in the configuration file by placing an asterisk (*) in the first non‑blank character in a record.

Configuration file records can be up to 71 characters long. To continue a record past the 71st character, specify a comma as the last non‑blank character in the record. This character continues the logical line to the next record.

A comma at the end of a comment line does not serve as a continuation character. For example:

* THIS IS A COMMENT LINE,

However, if a continuation character ends the line preceding a comment line, the asterisk is not a comment character. For example:

GRANT RULES USER,
*SELF TO KAREN

Is the same as:

GRANT RULES USER *SELF TO KAREN

The following table lists each record along with its configuration file:
