Description
How can you change the default which users get when they bring up the submission screen for a particular GUI Service, such as the acq-10 Service? We want to change default value for "Update Database" from "No" to "Yes".
Resolution
The defaults shown for a particular GUI service are found in the $alephe_root/pc_b_eng or if, none there, the $alephe_root/pc_b_eng. In this case, that is the $alephe_root/pc_b_eng/p-acq-10.xml or the $alephe_root/pc_b_eng/p-acq-10.xml.
The p-acq-10.xml has these lines:
<label>Update Database</label>
<source>explicit</source>
<default>N</default>
You would change the <default>N</default> to <default>Y</default> and restart the pc_server.
