What are the configuration files?

Cartographer agents are configured using several configuration files, all in XML format.

The configuration files are:

• xmpd.xml - Agent engine configuration settings
• cartographer.pem - Agent certificate authority keys
• appdata.xml - Cartographer plugin data file storing application data
• connectiondata.xml - Cartographer plugin data file storing connection data
• cartographer.xml - Cartographer plugin configuration settings
• cartographer-local.xml - Local, system-specific Cartographer-plugin configuration directives

Validating your configuration Files

An XML schema file defining Cartographer agent configuration files can be found here. To check the correctness of your config files, we suggest you use the xmllint utility included in the libxml2 software distribution.

% xmllint --noout --schema http://xmlns.krupczak.org/xsd/xmpdconfigs-1.0.xsd your-config.xml

xmpd.xml

Here is a basic xmpd.xml file that comes with the agent install.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<xmpd_config version="2" 
   xmlns="http://xmlns.krupczak.org/xsd/xmpdconfigs-1.0">
