Attributes specified on a SYSTEM NAME(*) statement
apply to all systems for which there is no explicit SYSTEM NAME statement
(that is, one with a name exactly matching that of the system), and
to all systems whose NAME statements do not explicitly specify the
attributes that are specified on the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement.
Note: For purposes of assigning attributes, the combination of
indeterminate status action (ISOLATETIME, DEACTTIME, RESETTIME, or
PROMPT) and SSUMLIMIT is considered to be a single attribute.
The example in
Figure 1 shows the use of the * to
assign installation default values in an SFM policy.
Figure 1. Example: Using * to Assign
Installation Defaults in SFM Policy DEFINE POLICY NAME(POLICY1) ...
SYSTEM NAME(SYS01)
ISOLATETIME(100)
SYSTEM NAME(SYS02)
WEIGHT(25)
SYSTEM NAME(*)
WEIGHT(10)
ISOLATETIME(0) SSUMLIMIT(150)
CFSTRHANGTIME(300)
In this example, system SYS01 uses the following
parameter values:
- It requires the ISOLATETIME value of 100 seconds and accepts the
system default of SSUMLIMIT(NONE). The SSUMLIMIT(150) specified on
the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement does not apply to SYS01, because the
SYSTEM NAME(SYS01) statement specifies an indeterminate status action
of ISOLATETIME(100).
- It uses policy default WEIGHT value of 10 and CFSTRHANGTIME value
of 300 established by the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement.
- It uses the system defaults for all attributes not specified on
either the SYSTEM NAME(SYS01) or the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement, for
example, MEMSTALLTIME(NO).
System SYS02 uses the following parameter values:
- It requires a WEIGHT value of 25.
- It uses the policy default combination of ISOLATETIME(0) SSUMLIMIT(150),
and the policy default CFSTRHANGTIME value of 300 established by the
SYSTEM NAME(*) statement.
- It uses the system defaults for all attributes not specified on
either the SYSTEM NAME(SYS02) or the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement, for
example, MEMSTALLTIME(NO).
All other systems use the following parameter values:
- The policy default combination of ISOLATETIME(0) SSUMLIMIT(150),
the policy default WEIGHT value of 10, and the policy default CFSTRHANGTIME
value of 300 established by the SYSTEM NAME(*) statement.
- The system defaults for all other attributes, for example, MEMSTALLTIME(NO).
