Additional considerations

Consider additional guidelines when using the following properties:

  • DGSUSERNAME: The username name of the STS account
  • DGSPASSWORD: The password name of the STS account
  • RUNASSERVICEACCT – Set this value to "0" to install the services as NETWORK SERVICE. Set this value to "1" to use the account information in the properties below;
  • ACCOUNTDOMAIN – The domain of the service account the services should be running as;
  • DOMAINACCOUNT – The username name of the service account;
  • DOMAINACCOUNTPASSWORD – The password of the service account;
  • DELIVERYINSTALLED: If set to 'false," the health check passes if the Delivery Service is not installed;
  • SetDocGenSvcHostConcurrentConsumerLimit – Defines how many concurrent transactions the Expere engine can process. This value defaults to "4," but can be tuned to match the number of CPU cores on the server. If the server has 8 CPU cores, then you can update this value to "8"
  • SHOWPACKAGESANDPACKETS: Used by the Tool Suite to present a checkbox for PNP functionality; change the value to "false" to disable this checkbox.
  • EZTRANSFORMINSTALLED: Used to enable or disable the Expere EZ Transform service in the DGS Tool Suite; change the value to "false" to disable this service.
Note: username and password values identified in the example above should be replaced with your unique values.
