    port            7772
    spare           0

    ## Optional
    manage_arbiters     1   ; Take data from Arbiter. There should be only one
                            ; broker for the arbiter.
    manage_sub_realms   1   ; Does it take jobs from schedulers of sub-Realms?
    timeout             3   ; Ping timeout
    data_timeout        120 ; Data send timeout
    max_check_attempts  3   ; If ping fails N or more, then the node is dead
    check_interval      60  ; Ping node every N seconds

    ## Modules

    # Comma separated list of modules
    modules	webui2,alerta

    # Enable https or not
    use_ssl	          0
