To update the configuration database, you
first need to modify a text file called default.cff,
which is located in the directory defined by $DTJ_DIR (usually /var/dirTalk/DTBE/native/aix).
You can do this manually, but the easiest way to populate the configuration
database initially or to modify it later is to use the configuration
tool dtjit.
To
run the configuration tool:
- As dtuser, type dtjit at
any AIX command line prompt. The following window is displayed:

- With VRBE configuration selected, press
the Enter key. The following window is displayed:

Before proceeding, you
need to know:
- The relative number of telephone calls that you expect to have
processed by each application.
- The details of any URIs that you need to specify. (The paths of
file URIs must be absolute, not relative.)
Note:
- The names of applications must not contain the colon (:) character.
- You can specify only one RecoService and one TTSService for each
Java locale.
- dtjit does not use an existing default.cff file
as an input but instead uses an existing vrbecfg.ser file.
You are advised to keep a back-up copy of this file.
- To configure the WebSphere Voice Response Java and VoiceXML Environment from
scratch, select each of the menu choices in turn and press the Enter
key to open the window for the selected section of the configuration.
To update a particular section of the configuration, select it from
the menu and press the Enter key.
Follow the instructions and answer
the questions displayed. If you need more information, press the F1
key to display help.
- When you have completed the configuration details that you need
to specify, in the VRBE Configuration window select Generate
vrbecfg.cff file and press the Enter key. A vrbecfg.cff file
is created in the directory defined by $DTJ_DIR.
- Press the F10 key to exit.
- Copy the generated vrbecfg.cff file to default.cff in
the same directory.
To update the configuration database, you need
to import default.cff into the configuration database
using the dtjconf command. This command replaces the default configuration
completely. The dtjconf command can also be used to export
the contents of the configuration database to a text file, and to
list the configurations in the database.
Figure 3. Using dtjconf
When
you install Blueworx Voice Response for AIX, the default.cff file
is located in directory /var/dirTalk/DTBE/native/aix.
There is also a default.sample.cff file located in
the same directory.
To update the default configuration
in the configuration database, config.cfd manually
rather than use the configuration tool:
- To be quite sure that the default.cff file is
an accurate representation of the current default configuration
in the configuration database, use the following command:
dtjconf -action export
- This creates a file called default.exp. Rename
it to default.cff.
- Edit the default.cff file to add or change the
entries as necessary.
The format of the configuration file is as
follows:
- Each line can contain a keyword and a parameter, separated by
an equals (=) sign.
- A pound sign (#) in the first column means that the line is treated
as a comment.
- Blank lines are ignored.
- There are entries identified by their primary keywords, specifying
different resources defined in the file: AppName configuration entry, GroupName configuration entry, NodeName configuration entry, HostName configuration entry, and so on.
- All references must point to something that has already been defined
earlier in the file. This means that:
- All AppName entries must precede all GroupName, RecoService
and TTSService entries.
- All CCXMLService, GroupName, RecoService, TelephonyService,
and TTSService entries must precede all NodeName entries.
- All NodeName entries must precede all HostName entries.
- Save the default.cff file.
- To import the new definitions into the configuration database,
use the following command: dtjconf.
- When you start each node, the changes take effect.
