Raw Configuration
You can use raw configuration to setup rare advanced global settings.
In scripting, use /rawconfig parameter (when the settings cannot be configured using dedicated command-line parameter or scripting command).
In .NET assembly, use Session.AddRawConfiguration method (when the settings cannot be configured using any dedicated property of Session class).
