    Configuration Files - BRCM

    Product(s): Bentley Raceway and Cable Management CONNECT Edition
    Version(s): 10
    Environment: N/A
    Area: Installation_Configuration

    Subarea:

    N/A

    In the CONNECT Edition, the software utilizes the native Power Platform configuration system to locate the dataset, connect to the project database, and specify various default settings.

    Note: Power Platform is the MicroStation core application that underlies the CONNECT Edition product.

    The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the specific configuration files that are used to configure the software. It explains the configuration hierarchy and identifies the location of key configuration files and what application configuration variables are set within those files.

    Configuration Hierarchy

    The configuration system is comprised of various configuration files which are organized in a hierarchy. When the software is started, it loads the configuration files in accordance with the hierarchy in the following order:

    1. System
    2. Organization
    3. Workspace
    4. WorkSet
    5. Role
    6. User

    Note: If any given variable is set in multiple configuration files at different levels of the hierarchy, the value set in the last loaded file will override the previously set values.

    Configuration Files

    After a default installation of the software, Bentley Raceway and Cable Management deploys two workspaces entitled, “BRCM Imperial Example" and "BRCM Metric Example.” The BRCM Configuration Variables are defined in configuration files named, “BRCM.cfg” which are located at the WorkSet levels of the configuration hierarchy.

    System Configuration File 

    There is an application configuration file found here: C:\Program Files\Bentley\Bentley Raceway and Cable Management CONNECT Edition\BRCM\config\appl\brcm.cfg

    This configuration file makes use of the following BRCM configuration variables:

    • BRCM_APPLICATION
    • BRCM_FILE_UPDATE_OPTION
    • BRCM_IMODEL_PUBLISH_MODE

    WorkSet Configuration File

    The WorkSet configuration file is found within each WorkSet under a Standards folder.

    i.e. ...\Configuration\Workspaces\BRCM Metric Example\Worksets\BRCM_EU_EN\Standards\BRCM

    This configuration file makes use of the following BRCM configuration variables:

    • BRCM_DB_ID
    • BRCM_DB_STATIONID
    • BRCM_DB_CONNECTSTRING
    • BRCM_WS_METADATA
    • BRCM_WS_RACEWAY
    • BRCM_WS_RACEWAY_TEMPLATES
    • BRCM_WS_EQUIPMENT
    • BRCM_WS_SCHEMAS
    • BRCM_WS_LANGUAGE

    For a list of the configuration variables refer to the Configuration Variables article.
