For more information about these parameters, see GET DATABASE MANAGER CONFIGURATION.

Usage Notes
To view or print a list of the admin configuration parameters, use GET ADMIN CONFIGURATION.
To reset the admin configuration parameters to the recommended database manager defaults, use RESET ADMIN CONFIGURATION.
For more information about admin configuration parameters, see the Administration Guide.
The values of these parameters differ for each type of database node configured (server, client, or server with remote clients). See the Administration Guide, or one of the Quick Beginnings books for the ranges and the default values that can be set on each node type.
Changes to the database manager configuration file become effective only after they are loaded into memory. This occurs during execution of db2start.
If an error occurs, the database manager configuration file does not change.
The database manager configuration file cannot be updated if the checksum is invalid. This may occur if the database manager configuration file is changed without using the appropriate command. If this happens, the database manager must be reinstalled to reset the database manager configuration file.
