B.2 Sample of a Basic Configuration for ArkConfig.xml

Before ArkManager 2.1 can run, you must configure the sys:\arkManager\arkConfig.xml file with basic authentication information for Novell eDirectory™ and MySQL. Use the sys:\arkManager\arkConfig_sample_basic.xml file as a guide for configuring the minumum set of elements needed to run ArkManager.

Use the full example in the sys:\arkManager\arkConfig_sample_full.xml file as a guide to configure default jobs settings and one or more individual versioning job. For information, see Section B.3, Sample of a Full Configuration for ArkConfig.xml

For information about the elements and their usage, see Section A.0, XML Elements and Attributes for ArkConfig.

<!-- This is the sample file to configure the Basic elements for
     arkConfig.xml. Basic element configure authentication for 
     the archive server and the MySQL server instance. Copy it 
     to sys:\arkManager\arkConfig.xml, and modify it accordingly.
