+Put variables and their substitution values in this file. 
+They will be used when processing the corresponding config.xml. 
+Values in this file can be overridden by environment variables and system properties 
+by prefixing the property name with 'org.apache.geronimo.config.substitution.' 
+For example, an entry such as hostName=localhost 
+can be overridden by an environment variable or system property org.apache.geronimo.config.substitution.hostName=foo 
+When running multiple instances of Geronimo choose a PortOffset value such that none of the ports conflict. 
+For example, try PortOffset=10
