client.ini

These tables list the parameters of the client.ini file.

[general] section

Default value Install value Install config Required Description
fontsize 11 client installs FALSE This controls the base font size. Larger font sizes are calculated based on this value. If it is not present, then it defaults to 11.
debug true true client installs FALSE When true, this indicates that unhandled exceptions are shown in the process output dialog box presented by the IDE. When false, the IDE does not show unhandled exception messages in the process output dialog box.
rmi_registry_port 13021 x client installs FALSE This is the RMI registry port of the current host server. This port is used when attempting connections to all host servers.
host_connect_timeout_secs 15 15 client installs FALSE This is the maximum amount of time to spend on each interrogation of a system host when looking for a host server. There are currently three types of servers: RMI, ANON, and AUTH.

When a user attempts to connect to a new system host, the client attempts a lookup on each server type for the amount of time that is specified by this parameter until successful.

jvm_args -Xmx256m all host TRUE JVM heap size defaults to 256MB

[host_hostname_audit_srv] section

This table lists the parameters in the [general] section:

Install value Install config Required Description
url //host:port/Cloverleaf_server client installs FALSE This is the URL of the server that was last successfully connected to by a GUI. The section name varies depending on the host name. Each host has a section. The port may vary depending on the port number of the RMI registry on the target host server. This setting makes faster subsequent connection attempts to a known host server. This eliminates the interrogation usually required when connecting to a host for the first time.

[user_username] section

Install value Install config Required Description
certs public_certificate1; public_certificate2; . . . client installs FALSE This is the fully-qualified, semicolon-delimited list of public certificate files that have been used on the client machine to successfully log in to a host server.
private_keys private_key1; private_key2; . . . client installs FALSE This is the fully-qualified, semicolon-delimited list of private key files that have been used on the client machine to successfully log in to a host server.
hosts host1; host2; . . . client installs FALSE This is the comma-delimited list of servers to which the client has had a successful connection.
last_host host client installs FALSE This is the last host to which a connection was successfully made. The name is used to access items in the host_hostname sections.
last_cert public_certificate client installs FALSE This is the fully-qualified path of the last certificate that was used for a successful connection to last_host.
last_private_key private_key client installs FALSE This is the fully-qualified path of the last private key that was used for a successful connection to last_host.
last_remote true/false client installs FALSE This indicates whether the last successfully connected host (last_host) was a remote or local connection.
last_environ environ_string client installs FALSE This is the last system environment that was selected for the last host (last_host). This value is found in the Select a Server and Environment dialog box.
login_user user name client installs FALSE This is the user name of the last user that logged on successfully. It is used to determine the section names starting with user_username.
use_cred_cache true/false client installs FALSE This indicates whether you must store successful connections to host servers locally. This eliminates the requirement for the user to log in to each GUI on start-up. The credential cache does have a distinct lifetime set by the administrator in the server.ini file (see the ticket_life parameter in server.ini). When the cache expires, the user is prompted to log in.
