Configuring the default application icon

The default application icon, in the Incidents, Service Requests, Problems, Changes and Releases applications, can be configured by changing the default icon image name that is hardcoded in the presentation xml for each application.

Procedure

  1. In the Application Designer application, select the record for the application whose default icon you wish to change.
  2. Export the presentation XML for the application by selecting the export icon.
  3. The default icon image name that is used is defined in the presentation XML for the application. For example, for the Problems application the image name of the default icon is contained within the 'image' element on the main tab as follows: <image align="center" column="0" height="100px" id="sccd_header_row1_col1_image1" imagename="ge100_problem.png" sigoption="PMPRBSHOWDEFAULTICON" width="100px"/>
  4. Substitute the name of the image file you want to use for the default icon image name file.
  5. Copy the new image file to the correct locations on the application server. To ensure that all occurrences are covered, copy the new image file to every location where the default icon image name file resides.
  6. Rebuild the ear file by running the maxinstall\deployment\buildmaximoear.cmd command.
  7. Redeploy the ear file. Once maximo is restarted, the new image file will be displayed in the Problems application.
