syscurconfigs

master database only

Description

syscurconfigs is built dynamically when queried. It contains an entry for each of the configuration parameters, as does sysconfigures, but with the current values rather than the default values. In addition, it contains four rows that describe the configuration structure.

Columns

The columns for syscurconfigs are:

Name	Datatype	Description
config	smallint	Configuration parameter number.
value	int	The current run value for the parameter with integer datatype. Its value is 0 for the parameters with character datatype.
comment	varchar(255)	Comments about the configuration parameter. For internal use..
status	int	Value that represents the type of configuration parameter. For details, see Table 1-5.
value2	varchar(255) null	The current run value for the parameter with the character datatype. Its value is NULL for parameters with the integer datatype.
defvalue	varchar(255) null	Default value of the configuration parameter.
minimum_value	int null	Minimum value of the configuration parameter.
maximum_value	int null	Maximum value of the configuration parameter.
memory_used	int null	Integer value for the amount of memory used by each configuration parameter. Negative values indicate memory shared.
display_level	int null	Display level of the configuration parameter. The values are 1, 5, and 10.
datatype	int null	Datatype of the configuration parameter.
message_num	int null	Message number of the sp_helpconfig message for this configuration parameter.
apf_percent	int null	The current run value for the asynchronous prefetch percent for a buffer pool. Valid only for rows that represent buffer pools.
nodeid	tinyint null	Reserved for future use
unit	varchar(20) null	Unit of the parameter. Values are:
unit	varchar(20) null	Not applicable – parameter has no units Number – number of items Clock ticks – number of clock ticks Microseconds Milliseconds Seconds Minutes Hours Days Bytes	Kilobytes Megabytes Memory pages (2K) Virtual pages (2K) Logical pages Percent Ratio Switch – a Boolean value ID – ID number Name Rows
type	varchar(10) null	Specifies whether a configuration parameter is declared dynamic or static in its structure definition. Values are: Dynamic – takes effect immediately. Static – takes effect after restarting Adaptive Server.
nodeid	tinyint null	Reserved for future use

Table 1-5 provides information about the status column.
