Configuration Manager

Configuration manager is a PeopleSoft Windows based application for configuring connecting settings for two tier (database) and three tier (application server) access to a PeopleSoft installation. It creates and loads configuration files (.cfg) into the Windows registry.

The executable for starting configuration manager is pscfg.exe and lives under:

%PS_HOME%\bin\client\winx86\

Configuration manager can also be used to configure local trace settings. With the move to the PIA (PeopleSoft Internet Architecture) in PeopleSoft 8+, configuration manager is now only used for external PeopleTools application such as application designer and data mover.
