The Cluster Edition includes global and instance configuration parameters. Global configuration parameters affect the entire cluster, while instance configuration parameters affect only the instance on which they are set. To set global configuration parameters, open the Configuration tab for the cluster and select the name of the cluster, then select the configuration parameters to reset.
By default, instances use the global configuration values unless an instance setting overrides them.
Setting configuration parameters for an instance
Right-click the instance name you want to configure.
Select Configure (or select File | Properties, then click the Configuration tab).
Select the functional group to display, or select “All.”
Select the parameter you want to update. For a brief description of the selected parameter, read the Explanation box.
Enter the new value in the Value column of the table.
Click OK (or Apply if you are changing multiple configuration values).
If the parameter takes effect immediately, it is listed in the Value column.
If the parameter requires you to restart Adaptive Server, it is listed in the Pending Value column.
