System value categories

iSeries™ Navigator groups system values into categories to streamline system value management.

You can use iSeries Navigator to work with the following categories of system values:

System values: Auditing overview Changes the auditing values.
System values: Date and time overview Changes the date, time, and time zone information.
System values: Devices overview Changes device auto-configuration and recovery values.
System values: International overview Changes locale settings and format of numbers, currency, dates, and time.
System values: Jobs overview Changes system level job limits and default job priorities.
System values: Library lists overview Changes the default system and user library lists.
System values: Messages and service overview Changes messages, logging, and service information.
System values: Password overview Changes password expiration and composition rules.
System values: Performance overview Changes priority, performance adjustments, and processing values for the system.
System values: Power control overview Changes power supply values.
System values: Printing overview Changes basic printing values and format of printer output.
System values: Restart overview Changes initial setup values and settings that affect restart.
System values: Save and restore overview Changes restore and save values.
System values: Security overview Changes object, user, and system security values.
System values: Signon overview Changes signon values.
System values: Storage overview Changes values for system storage.
System values: System and user defaults overview Displays system identification information and changes system level values.

These system value categories are different from the categories used in the character-based interface. To compare the iSeries Navigator categories with the character-based categories (grouped by the type (*TYPE) parameter), see Character-based types versus iSeries Navigator categories.
