Calendar Application System Parameters

This chapter lists and describes all tunable parameters available to configure the Oracle Calendar application system (OCAS) and its components. All parameters listed are located in the following configuration files found in ocas/conf/:

The configuration files contain settings that provide a good starting point for further configuration. Each parameter's stated default value is used if that parameter is omitted from its configuration file. These defaults are not necessarily the optimal settings for your installation, so it is best not to remove parameters from the files.

It is strongly recommended that for reference purposes you make a copy, in either printed or electronic format, of these files before you modify them.

The following tables list the parameters you can edit in each of the configuration files.
