Environment Configuration

This page contains a list of environment variables that you'll configure during the installation process. Some of these are required and must be at hand when you install Garden Enterprise.
These values are provided via the Replicated admin console. You can edit the configuration at any time. If you modify the configuration, Garden Enterprise will be re-deployed with the new values.
The values are grouped into categories for convenience.
