System configuration

The behavior of a system is determined by configuration settings that are loaded from the configuration file, system.cfg, during system startup and are stored in the configuration registry. These settings influence such things as system management, workload management, host processes, and SPUs, and are used to control and tune the system.

Attention: Never change a configuration setting unless directed to do so explicitly by either:
  • Your Netezza Performance Server for Cloud Pak for Data and Netezza Performance Server for Cloud Pak for Data System support representative
  • A documented Netezza Performance Server procedure
Incorrect configuration settings can result in significant loss of performance and other problems.
