# Unified Configuration File

In a unified configuration, the unified configuration file contains the parameters that determine how the server operates. You can modify the configuration parameters to customize Knowledge Discovery. You can find this file in the following directory:

    InstallDir\idolserver.cfg

where `InstallDir` is the installation directory for your unified server.

You can validate the configuration file, or search for text in the configuration file, by using the Config page in the Monitor section of the Knowledge Discovery Admin user interface. However, you cannot edit the configuration file by using Knowledge Discovery Admin. For more information, refer to the Knowledge Discovery Admin User Guide.

In a setup where you use stand-alone components, each component uses its own configuration file. For more information, see Edit the Configuration Files and the Knowledge Discovery Getting Started Guide.

The following sections give more information about editing configuration files, and provides details about the sections in the unified configuration file.
