5.1.8.1 Changing the Configuration Server of One EDM Client
In order to make an EDM Configuration Client get its configuration set from another Configuration
Server, these steps are required:
Open the Configuration Status tab of the Configuration GUI on the old Configuration Server
and click the Update button.
For each EDM computer in the list of computers (you may select multiple lines at once), open
the context menu and select Assign new configuration server.
Figure 5-16: Change configuration server
In the text box, change the host name part of the URI to match the new configuration server.
On the new configuration server, type-in the appropriate settings for the EDM Client's alias and
host name.

6 Technical References and Advanced Configuration
This chapter contains detailed technical references and also describes how to perform advanced
configuration in SIPLACE EDM.
6.1 Registry Keys
This section describes the Windows Registry keys used by EDM. This includes user-defined
settings as well as the settings that need to be accessed when the application starts. The
installation program presets these with sensible values.
The core EDM settings are found in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Siemens\SIPLACE\EDM
(
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Siemens SIPLACE\EDM on x64 Based Systems)
Key Type Contents
DataDir String Folder where EDM looks for its data files.
If the Key is not present, the default value of:
"%ProgramData%" (Windows Vista or newer) or the EDM
Installation folder (Windows XP) will be used.
ConfigDir String Location of the EDM configuration files. If the key is not
present, the search continues in the "config" subfolder of
the location specified in "DataDir".
ConfigurationServer
String This is the URI of the EDM Configuration Server to use
for configuration updates and status messages. On the
Configuration Server it will also be used by all EDM
Applications except the EDM Service (which will use the
values from the SystemConfig referenced in the local
EdmConfiguration).
ConfigurationMode String The value indicated which configuration distribution
scheme is used on this system. Possible values are:
Centralized: Indicates that this is a configuration
client (which receives its configuration from the
configuration server specified in the
"ConfigurationServer" value). It will use the applicaton
specific config files stored in the "_cache" sub-folder
of the EDM "ConfigDir" if the configuration sever is not
available.
Server: This is an EDM configuration sever. It will use
the local configuration found in "ConfigDir"
Local: In this mode disables the centralized
configuration feature for this machine. EDM
applications will thus use local configuration found in
"ConfigDir". It is not recommended to use this mode
as it will likely cause an inconsistent EDM
environment.
