Considerations for the ALTER Command
•
The following information applies to the Layer 5 attributes that set threshold values
for Session Layer counters, the Layer 6 attributes that set threshold values for
Presentation Layer counters and the ACSE attributes that set threshold values for
ACSE Services:
°
An EMS event message is generated whenever a counter value is nonzero and
dividing the counter value by the threshold value leaves a remainder of zero.
°
Setting a low value to these attributes could result in many EMS event messages
being generated if the condition continues for a long time. In this case, the
threshold value could be raised to decrease the amount of event messages.
•
The OSI/TS ALTER PROCESS command has several attributes that are not
included in the OSI/AS ALTER PROCESS command. They are
To alter any of these values, issue the command using
process-name, which sends
the command directly to the TSP process. An altered value must subsequently be
reconfigured each time the TSP process is restarted.
•
Both OSI/AS and OSI/TS support the MAXCONNECTIONS attribute however,
larger values can be specified (up to 1024) to a TSP process directly by issuing the
SCF/TS ALTER PROCESS command. See the OSI/TS SCF Reference Manual.
PROFILE Object
•
For ALTER PROFILE commands, the changed values for any changed attributes
only apply to new connections. Existing connections are not affected.
•
For the ALTER PROFILE #L4 (and ALTER SERVICE #L4) commands, the
transport protocol class and alternate transport protocol class are determined by the
ALTCLASS, CLASS, MULTIPLEX, and NETTYPE attributes. The following table
defines the valid combinations of values for these attributes.
