Change Connect:Direct for Microsoft Windows Settings
When you install IBM® Connect:Direct® for Microsoft Windows, initialization parameters are created in the Microsoft Windows registry and are used to determine settings at initialization. Initialization parameters (also called initparms) set the default values of Connect:Direct functions.
Initparms determine how Connect:Direct behaves during operation. You can change the default IBM Connect:Direct for Microsoft Windows settings by changing the value of these parameters.
