1  –  CHECKS

    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

1.1  –  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.

1.2  –  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.
