A.2 Global Configuration Values

Global configuration values (GCVs) are values that can be used by the driver to control functionality. GCVs are defined on the driver or on the driver set. Driver set GCVs can be used by all drivers in the driver set. Driver GCVs can be used only by the driver on which they are defined.

The JMS driver includes several GCVs that are created from driver parameters. When you modify the driver parameters, the GCVs are updated; likewise, when you modify the GCVs, the driver parameters are updated. These GCVs are created so that the driver parameter information can be more easily used in the driver’s policies.

You can also add your own GCVs if you discover you need additional ones as you implement policies in the driver.
