Changing the `hpsum.ini` file

[FTP}

port=disabled

port=63001

ssl_port=63002

num_threads=40

[Engine]

temp_dir=<path>


	NOTE: This parameter is one method of changing the temp directory where HP SUM stores the log files and the nodes and the baseline database. For more information on changing the directory of the temp directory, see Changing the temporary directory.

To change the `hpsum.ini` file

Navigate to the temp directory for HP SUM. The default location for the temp directory is /tmp/HPSUM (Linux) or %tempt%\HPSUM (Windows).


	NOTE: If this is the first time using HP SUM on this node, start HP SUM, and then shut down the application. HP SUM creates the file `hpsum.ini` and shutting down the application allows you to edit the file.

Open the hpsum.ini file in a text editor.
Change the parameters.
Save the file.
