General overview

Each component and plugin can be configured individually. A number of configuration tools are available for this purpose. The following is an overview of the various configuration files, their meaning and the supplied tools with which these files can be conveniently edited.

Depending on which function is to be executed, different parameters are required. For each function there is a start menu link per basic installation, so that no manual input of the parameters is necessary.

The client interface and all plugins are configured in the client administration mode. The respective plugin configurations can be found in the Plugins section.

The tools are located at {installation path}\Tools

The directories specified refer to the installation directory of the server components
(Default: %ProgramFiles(x86)%\smcTeam\SCCM Manager\)

For more information you can click on the link to the respective tool.
