Administering Component Parameters

Component parameters set the attributes specific to a particular component type. These parameters are set initially when the defined component is created. When you assign a component to a Siebel Server, the component inherits the Siebel Enterprise Server and Siebel Server parameters applicable to that Siebel Server. The three types of parameters (except those marked Fixed when the defined component was created) can be overridden for the particular component on that Siebel Server.

By default, if component-level parameters are changed, any future configurations to Siebel Enterprise Server or Siebel Server-level parameters do not cascade down to the component parameter level for that particular parameter. To restore this functionality, see To delete a component parameter override.

New values for component-level dynamic parameters (parameters marked as Effective Immediately) set using the Siebel Server Manager will apply to subsequently started tasks, unless these values are overridden at a lower level.

New values for static parameters (parameters not marked Effective Immediately) will not apply to subsequently started tasks until you stop and restart the Siebel Server System Service. For both fixed and static parameters, the Siebel Server Manager views will continue to show both the current value and the value upon Siebel Server restart.

To modify component parameters

  1. Navigate to the Components screen.
  2. Click the Component Parameters view tab.
  3. In the Server Components list, select the component you want to modify.
  4. In the Component Parameters list, change the values of the parameters you want to modify.
    1. Select the parameter that you want to modify.
    2. In the Current Value field, type in the new value.
    3. To make the parameter dynamic, check the Effective Immed? flag.
    4. Click the menu button and then Save Record.

      5. For a list of component parameters and their related attributes, see Parameters.

Figure 25 shows an example of setting the Alert level component parameter for the Generate Triggers component to 3.
