You most typically reconfigure processes to improve load balancing. You would do
this, for example, to place the primary and backup transaction management processes
(TMPs) in different processors to avoid contention with other processes that use
resources intensively.
Process configuration parameters other than available processors (the CPUS
parameter) should be changed only under special circumstances.
