Before doing a reconfiguration, shut down Connect CDC Listener.
In addition to doing a full install, you can reconfigure an existing installation. The steps for running the GUI Installer or the Batch Installer are the same as for an initial, full install. All parameter values may be changed except the recipient Host and the installation directory.

The GUI Installer attempts to detect an existing installation of Connect CDC on the installing host by creating a file in a well-known writeable system directory. The directory is the “temporary I/O” directory provided by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir. The 'file' is either a link to the <host_name>.properties file in the host installation directory, or a copy.

The Installer checks for the last installation done on the host being installed. It does not check for Connect CDC installations on the same host done prior to the last.
It displays the parameter values specified on the prior install in all windows except the initial window where the recipient host is defined.
-
The Batch Installer reconfigures a host installation if the reconfigure keyword parameter in the host.list file is Y.
