Verify the Current Configuration Mode of SystemEDGE

The following steps describe a method to determine the configuration mode of SystemEDGE.

The following terminology is used throughout these use cases:

Static sysedge.cf file

Identifies the file laid down by the installer, and is located in the Installed_Dir\SystemEDGE\config directory.

Default:

Windows: C:\Program Files\CA\SystemEDGE\config

UNIX/Linux: /opt/CA/SystemEDGE/config

Dynamic sysedge.cf file

Identifies the ongoing SystemEDGE configuration file, and is located under the Data_Dir\port<number> directory.

Default:

Windows: C:\Users\Public\CA\SystemEDGE\port161

UNIX/Linux: /opt/CA/SystemEDGE/config/port161

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in the server on which SystemEDGE runs for which you want to determine the configuration mode.
  2. Change to the 'data' directory of SystemEDGE and open the port<number> directory. On Windows, you can open the sysedge.cf file in the data directory from the SystemEDGE Control Panel.

    Note: The dynamic sysedge.cf file in the 'data' directory is different from the static sysedge.cf file in the 'config' directory.

  3. Open the dynamic sysedge.cf file in the port<number> directory.

    If SystemEDGE runs in managed mode, the first line specifies a control value (ctrl_value).

    Example:

    ctrl_value 0x9e30d00e
    
    # Generated file - DO NOT EDIT
    #
    # Configuration file generated on 2012:03:27 05:37
    #
    # Generated from default.generic.0.prof
    #
    version 5.7
    

    If SystemEDGE runs in unmanaged mode, the first line specifies the version.

    Example:

    version 5.7
