Configuration Settings

The install determines optimum memory settings based on the physical memory of the system. The settings assume that there are no other services on the machine consuming significant memory. If this is not the case, please lower the memory settings by editing the file brighthouse.ini within the data directory.

The Install Wizard automatically creates Infobright as a Windows Service, which allows the Infobright server to be started and stopped automatically when you boot or shutdown Windows. If you do not want Infobright to start on boot, open the Services window from the Control Panel and change the Startup Type for Infobright from “Automatic” to “Manual.”
