Abstract

Methods and apparatuses provide a configuration machine to manage dynamic values within a configuration setting to be resolved at a runtime implementation of a configuration. The dynamic information can be referenced within the configuration setting by a calculated value that provides an expression to be evaluated to resolve the configuration setting. The elements of the calculated value expression can be provided from system-dependent values stored in a system profile and applied to the calculated value expression to result in a configuration setting value to be used by the system in configuration of the system.
