Note that you can specify the 
ems_response_timeout_
NSserver instead of or in 
addition to this parameter. If 
ems_response_timeout_
NSserver is specified, its value 
overrides the value of this

ems_mount_delay Specifies the minimum number

ems_InterSystem 
Communication_ 
hosts
Specifies a list of hostnames or 
IP addresses of other VTS 
systems with which VTS will
