Quick Beginnings for DB2 Extended Enterprise Edition for UNIX


Configuration Parameters

Configuration parameters are values that affect the operating characteristics of a database or database management system.

Database manager configuration parameters exist on servers and clients; however, only certain database manager configuration parameters can be set on the client. These parameters are a subset of the database management configuration parameters that can be set on the server. In DB2 Extended Enterprise Edition, one database manager configuration file is shared between all database partition servers in the instance.

Database configuration parameters can be set only on the server, or remotely from the Control Center. In DB2 Extended Enterprise Edition, each database partition has its own configuration file.

note

For information on setting database or database manager configuration parameters, refer to the Administration Guide.
