Change an integrated Windows server file with UPDATECONFIG entry type

You can use the UPDATECONFIG entry type to change an integrated server file in these ways:

• Add strings to lines in the file.
• Add new strings before or after a specified string.
• Delete strings from lines in the file.
• Specify in which paths to change the file.

To change an integrated server file, create an NWSD configuration file that contains the UPDATECONFIG entry type as follows:

UPDATECONFIG
 VAR              = '<variable_name>',              (required)
 ADDSTR           = '<line to process>',            (required)
 ADDWHEN          = '<ALWAYS|NEVER|<expression>>',  (optional)
 DELETEWHEN       = '<NEVER|ALWAYS|<expression>>',  (optional)
 LINECOMMENT      = '<"REM "|<comment_string>>',    (optional)
 LINELOCATION     = '<END|BEGIN>',                  (optional)
 LINESEARCHPOS    = '<AFTER|BEFORE>',               (optional)
 LINESEARCHSTR    = '<string within a line>',       (optional)
 FILESEARCHPOS    = '<AFTER|BEFORE>',               (optional)
 FILESEARCHSTR    = '<search string>',              (optional)
 FILESEARCHSTROCC = '<LAST|FIRST>',                 (optional)
 TARGETDIR        = '<BOOT|<path>>',                (optional)
 TARGETFILE       = '<CONFIG.SYS|<file_name>>',     (optional)
 VAROCC           = '<LAST|FIRST>',                 (optional)
 VARVALUE         = '<variable value>               (optional)
