I meant the other configuration files. I guess I haven't dug deep enough, but DOES Tomcat handle the catalina.properties, catalina.policy, logging.properties, etc. files hierarchically similar to how Microsoft handles web.config files? CATALINA_HOME being the parent and Instances automatically inheriting from the Parent unless overridden at the instance level in its conf folder?
Basically can I publish a parent catalina.policy file and NOT include one in the instance?
