About Task Parameters

Task parameters control the execution of a specific task. These parameters consist of Siebel Enterprise Server, Siebel Server, and component-level parameters for the Siebel Server and the component for which the task is being executed, as well as task-specific parameters specified when starting the task. Task parameters are set or overridden when you first start the task. After a task is running, only dynamic parameters may be changed.

NOTE:  The delay before the new parameter value is picked up and used by a running task varies by component, depending on how often the tasks for a particular component recheck their parameter values.

See About Siebel System Parameters for background information on other Siebel system parameters.
