Sample Configuration File¶
The following is a sample Placement configuration for adaptation and use. For a detailed overview of all available configuration options, refer to Configuration Options.
The sample configuration can also be viewed in file form.
Important
The sample configuration file is auto-generated from placement when this documentation is built. You must ensure your version of placement matches the version of this documentation.
