Default values

Some parameters have only one default value, and some have more than one.

For example, TMS:Engine sets this global default value for the KDS_TEMS_STORAGE_LIMIT_EXTEND parameter:

LIMIT(16,X)

However, the PARMGEN files override the TMS:Engine default and show a different default value for the Tivoli® Enterprise Monitoring Server:

LIMIT(23,X)

When you edit a default value in a PARMGEN file, your edited value overrides the default value, which has already overridden the TMS:Engine default value (if one exists).

The default values provided by an individual monitoring agent product often differ from the TMS:Engine default values, the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server default values, and the default values of other monitoring agents. Default values are shown in PARMGEN configuration profiles. These values are also included in the documentation for each monitoring agent product. The information in this section includes information about the default values for runtime environment and Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server parameters.
