Configuring TM properties

Before you begin

The WorldServer translation memory (TM) contains dozens of options that allow configuration for customer needs. The options are currently not exposed in the WorldServer UI. Instead, they are configured in a special TM properties file named tm.properties. WorldServer provides default values for all properties. These are hard-coded internally.

The tm.properties file is not required, unless you want to override any of the default values. To override default values, follow these steps:

Procedure

  1. Locate the file tm.properties.
    The file resides in the same directory as other WorldServer properties files:
    <WorldServer Installation Directory>\web-inf\classes\config
  2. Open tm.properties for editing.
  3. Find the property name-value pairs to override default values. The basic pattern is:
    [Property Name]=[Desired Value].
  4. Save changes and start or restart WorldServer. The values from the tm.properties file are read during the WorldServer initialization process only. New values are not used until WorldServer is restarted.
