Course Description:
The OS/400 operating system uses a set of variables, called system values, to control the overall operation of your computer system. If your system is part of a network, another set of values, called network attributes, is used to control networking and communications. This course describes how system values and network attributes are used and how you can manipulate them.

The course begins by describing one tool for displaying and changing the contents of selected system values and network attributes, the Change System Options display. This display is sufficient for many system administrators, particularly those with new iSeries systems. However, most system administrators eventually want to know what functions they can control via system values and what settings might improve the performance of their systems. Because of this, subsequent sessions of the course describe the purpose of each system value, with emphasis on those system values that are most frequently changed by system administrators.

In addition to learning the purpose of each system value, you will see how to display or change the contents of system values using the DSPSYSVAL, CHGSYSVAL, and WRKSYSVAL commands. You will also see how to copy the contents of a system value into a CL program variable.

Finally, the course describes how to display or change the contents of network attributes.
