ALTER PROFILE Command
If you specify the program file name location as $SYSTEM.SYSTEM, the operating 
system first searches for the file there and on the current SYSnn subvolume. 
STARTSTATE { STARTED| STOPPED } 
specifies whether the IOP is available to other processes (STARTED) or 
unavailable (STOPPED) when the system is loaded or reloaded. The default is 
STARTED. 
UPDATESTATS number 
is the interval (in minutes) at which the storage pool process should collect 
information about the physical volumes in the storage pool. number is either -1(no 
statistics should collected) or in the range 0 through 1440. The default is 30. 
If you specify a very large number, statistics are gathered infrequently.  Depending 
on how much virtual disk activity occurs, virtual disk processes could make 
volume-selection decisions using out-of-date information. 
Specifying a small value for number results in statistics being gathered frequently 
but might affect system performance. 
ALTER POOL Examples 
See the procedure for Altering Storage Pool Attribute Values on page 9-9.
