Parameters Entries

The Registry path that contains entries for the SunLink Server Parameters is as follows:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AdvancedServer\Parameters

• CheckPrintQueueInMinutes REG_DWORD 1 - infinity

  The interval in minutes at which the server determines whether a printer queue should be started.

  Default: 10 minutes

• DisableUpLevelPrinting REG_DWORD 0 or 1

  Specifies whether to disable or enable Windows NT-style printing.

  Do not change this value from the default setting of 0. Doing so will disable all printing services.

  Default: 0

• MaxDirectoryBufferSize REG_DWORD 1 - infinity

  The maximum size of a buffer that the server will use for a getdents(2) system call to read the contents of a Solaris system directory. Because SunLink Server will attempt to allocate these buffers using the GC memory allocator, one should consider increasing the SizeGcBufferPoolInKB key if one increases this value.

  Default: 32768 bytes

• MaxIpcTryCount REG_DWORD 1 - infinity

  The number of read() system calls after which the server checks whether other work could be done by the server. There is a considerable amount of interprocess communication (IPC) between server processes. The server uses the read system call to receive IPC messages, but read does not always return the entire message. This key ensures that the server does not keep trying to get an IPC message at the expense of other activities the process could perform.

  Default: 20

• MaxMailslotReadTime REG_DWORD 1 - infinity

  The amount of time in seconds to wait for a local mailslot application to read a class 1 mailslot. A value specified here keeps the server from waiting indefinitely for a message to be delivered.

  Default: 90 seconds

• MaxMessageSize REG_DWORD 1024 - infinity

  The maximum amount of data that a client can exchange with the server.

  Default: 4156 bytes

• MaxPrintQueueNameLength REG_DWORD 1 - 255 characters

  Provides dynamic control of the allowable length of the name of a printer queue. LP subsystem commands currently allow class names to be as large as 255 characters, but jobs sent to these classes cannot be controlled and many of the Solaris system commands to manipulate these jobs result in a fatal error. This key is used by printer queue functions to restrict access to queues based on the length of the queue name.

  Default: 14

• MaxRawSize REG_DWORD 8192 bytes - infinity

  Specifies the maximum size (in bytes) of the raw send or receive buffers that the SunLink Server program will use for processing Read Block Raw, Write Block Raw, Transaction, Transaction 2, or NT Transaction SMBs.

  Default: 32768

• MaxServiceWaitTime REG_DWORD 5 seconds - infinity

  Specifies the amount of time (in seconds) the server will wait for a service to respond when it changes the following statuses of the services: pause, continue, install, uninstall.

  Default: 60

• NativeLM REG_SZ Character string

  An additional field in the session setup request/response. This field is generated at run time.

  Default: (Vendor-specific)

• NativeOS REG_SZ Character string

  An additional field in the session setup request/response. This field is generated at run time.

  Default: (platform-dependent)

• SendByeMessage REG_DWORD 0 or 1

  Specifies whether the server sends a message to every client in the domain in the event that it is going to stop for any reason other than a normal shutdown. The message states that the SunLink Server program has stopped.

  Default: 1 (send a message)

• SizeGcBufferPoolInKB REG_DWORD 1 - infinity

  The buffer size in Kbytes allocated for each server process for client files.

  Default: 200 Kbytes
