People aren't required to set up the awsapi, right? Many won't need it. Just wondering if it should be reflected as optional.
For #2, we should tell them to add the lines to their db.properties, but also save the example db.properties. I've pushed a commit to save the example one for RPM installations, although it doesn't do much to solve the issue since the user still needs to either copy their existing config into it or modify their existing config adding the lines you mention.
