The OpenSplice configuration tool allows you to quickly and easily modify the xml configuration file being used by OpenSplice.
OpenSplice gets it configuration from an xml file. The file specifies the architectural model and the OpenSplice services that should run when the DDS infrastructure starts. The OSPL_URI environment variable refers to the specify xml configuration file that is in use. By default this is set to point to the ospl.xml file located in the etc/config directory of the OpenSplice installation. If you wish to change your configuration this can be done by modifying the xml file.
