Bypasses validation of parameter values. SYSMAN parameter validation ensures that the parameters fall within the defined minimum and maximum values specified in the PARAMETERS SET command. Format PARAMETERS DISABLE CHECKS
1 – Description
The PARAMETERS DISABLE CHECKS command enables you to override minimum and maximum values established for system parameters. SYSMAN does parameter checks by default. If you attempt to set parameter values outside the allowable limits when checks are enabled, the operating system issues an error message. By disabling checks you can set parameter values regardless of the minimum and maximum limits. NOTE Range checks are enabled by default because VSI suggests that systems operate within these minimum and maximum values. Setting parameters outside these limits can result in system failures or hangs.
2 – Example
SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER SYSMAN> SET PROFILE/DEFAULT=SYS$SYSTEM/PRIVILEGES=CMEXEC SYSMAN> PARAMETERS SET MAXPROCESSCNT 10 %SMI-E-OUTRANGE, parameter is out of range SYSMAN> PARAMETERS DISABLE CHECKS SYSMAN> PARAMETERS SET MAXPROCESSCNT 10 In this example, the initial attempt to set MAXPROCESSCNT below the minimum fails because range checks are enabled. However, once range checks are disabled, the PARAMETERS SET MAXPROCESSCNT command succeeds.
