Parameters in the Tm1s.cfg File

The parameters in the Tm1s.cfg file are described here.

Dynamic parameter

Dynamic parameter values can be edited while the IBM® Cognos® TM1® server is running.

The Cognos TM1 server continuously polls the Tm1s.cfg file at 60 second intervals to determine if any dynamic parameter values have changed. If the server detects a parameter value change, the new value is applied immediately. Dynamic parameters are identified with a statement describing them as "dynamic" in this list.

Static parameter

Static parameter values are read from the Tm1s.cfg file only when the IBM Cognos TM1 server starts. If you want to change a static parameter value, you must shut down the Cognos TM1 server, edit the value in the Tm1s.cfg file, and then restart the server.

Most parameters in the Tm1s.cfg file are static.

Spaces in values

If a parameter value contains spaces, enclose the parameter values within double quotes.

DistributedPlanningOutputDir
DistributedPlanningOutputDir defines the directory to which TUnits are written when a Cognos Insight distributed application is deployed.
DownTime
EnableODBCproxy
EnableODBCProxy makes 32-bit data source names to be available to TurboIntegrator processes on 64-bit machines.
ExcelWebPublishEnabled
Enables the publication of Microsoft Excel files to IBM Cognos TM1 Web, as well as the export of Excel files from Cognos TM1 Web, when Excel is not installed on the Web Server.
ForceReevaluationOfFeedersForFedCellsOnDataChange
When this parameter is set, a feeder statement is forced to be re-evaluated when data changes.
GroupsCreationLimit
IdleConnectionTimeOutSeconds
IntegratedSecurityMode
IPAddress
IPVersion
This parameter indicates the Internet protocol used by the IBM Cognos TM1 server to identify IP addresses on the network.
JavaJVMPath
This parameter sets the path to the Java™ Virtual Machine .dll file (jvm.dll), which is required to run Java from IBM Cognos TM1 TurboIntegrator.
JobQueuing
JobQueueMaxWaitTime
JobQueueThreadPoolSize
The JobQueueThreadPoolSize parameter enables IBM Cognos TM1 to use multiple threads to process the Cognos TM1 Job Queue, providing greater thru-put and processing of sandbox requests when the Cognos TM1 server is configured to use Parallel Interaction. When the server is not running in Parallel Interaction mode, this parameter has no effect, and only a single thread is used to process requests in the Job Queue.
JobQueueThreadSleepTime
Language
LDAPUseServerAccount
Determines if a password is required to connect to the server when using LDAP authentication.
LDAPPasswordFile
Defines the password file used when LDAPUseServerAccount is not used. This is the full path of the .dat file that contains the encrypted password for the IBM Cognos TM1 server Admin Server's private key.
LDAPPasswordKeyFile
Defines the password key used when LDAPUseServerAccount is not used.
LockPagesInMemory
LoggingDirectory
LogReleaseLineCount
MaskUserNameInServerTools
Determines whether or not user names in server administration tools (TM1 Top and TM1 Operations Console) are masked until a user is explicitly verified as having administrator access.
MaximumCubeLoadThreads
MaximumLoginAttempts
MaximumMemoryForSubsetUndo
MaximumSynchAttempts
MaximumTILockObjects
A server configuration parameter that sets the maximum lock objects for a TurboIntegrator process. Used by the synchronized() TurboIntegrator function.
MaximumUserSandboxSize
MaximumViewSize
MTQ
Sets the maximum number of threads per TM1 query.
MaxUndoHoldLineCount
MessageCompression
NetRecvBlockingWaitLimitSeconds
Changes the way the maximum time the server waits for a client to send the next request from one long wait to shorter wait periods so a thread may be cancelled if needed.
NetRecvMaxClientIOWaitWithinAPIsSeconds
Maximum time for a client to do I/O within the time interval between arrival of the first packet of data for a set of APIs through processing until response has been sent.
ParallelInteraction
Turns Parallel Interaction on or off for all of the user-created and control cubes in an IBM Cognos TM1 server.

StartupChores
StartupChores is a configuration parameter that identifies a list of chores that run at server startup.
SyncUnitSize
UnicodeUpperLowerCase
This configuration parameter instructs the TM1 server to identify and handle Unicode object names, preventing the creation of identical Unicode object names that vary only in case.
