This week's best practices article features guidelines and a video tutorial for creating system properties. System administrators can learn how to effectively create system properties to perform custom functions in the system. This gives you the flexibility to make changes to the system without reinventing the wheel.
This article offers guidelines for:
- Creating system properties to use in scripts — This allows you to make changes to a single system property that can be implemented system-wide.
- Defining and using naming conventions — A naming standard allows you to quickly filter through hundreds of custom properties in the system properties list.
- Grouping properties into categories — The categories help organize system properties so you can effectively manage the process.
- Creating properties pages — This gives you access to all of the properties in one place and allows for easy changes to property values.
