Notes
For example, if you normally run the Broker with the command:
p4broker -c c:\p4broker\broker.conf
you can set the P4BROKEROPTIONS
variable for the Windows service to
run with:
p4 set -S "Broker" P4BROKEROPTIONS= "-c c:\p4broker\broker.conf"
When you run P4Broker under the "Broker"
service, the Broker will
configure itself using the specified broker.conf
file. Use
P4BROKEROPTIONS
when you need to call p4broker
with options
for which there are no corresponding environment variables, or when you
are doing so within the context of a Windows service.
