<h1 class="topictitle1">System values</h1>
<div><p>System values are pieces of information that affect the system
operating environment. System values are not objects on the system. Rather,
system values contain control information for the operation of certain parts
of the system.</p>
<p>You can use system values to change the system in order to define the working
environment. For example, system date, library list, international characteristics,
and certain security features are all set by system values.</p>
<div class="tablenoborder"><table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" summary="" frame="void" border="0" rules="none"><tbody><tr><td valign="top"><p>You can manage system values using iSeries™ Navigator or the character-based
interface. The image you see shows the location of the system values function
in iSeries Navigator.
Follow the highlighted path to access system values. After you select <span class="uicontrol">System
Values</span>, you may select one of the categories of system values.</p>
<p>To
change system values, you need to have use (*USE) authority to the Change
System Values (CHGSYSVAL) command. In addition, some system values require
a special authority. If special authorities are needed, they are noted in
the system value topics that follow. To learn more about system values, refer
to any of the following topics:</p>

for V5R4</a></strong><p>This is the place to go for the latest information regarding
system values.</p>
</li>

</li>
<li><strong><a href="rzakzfinder.htm">System value
finder</a></strong> <p>Use the system value finder to locate information about
a specific system value or category of system values. Use this tool to see
where to find particular system values within iSeries Navigator and how to effectively
use them. This tool is very useful for system administrators who are familiar
with the character-based interface terms (such as QAUDCTL or QPWDLVL). The
finder identifies the character-based interface term and the associated terminology
used in the iSeries Navigator
graphical interface. In addition, specific details about each system value
are provided.</p>
</li>
<li><strong><a href="rzakzoverviewparent.htm">System value categories</a></strong><p>iSeries Navigator
groups system values into categories, beginning with auditing and ending with
system control. Select this topic to find overviews of the system values contained
within each category, including links to information about individual system
values. You may also print the entire system values topic.</p>
</li>
<li><strong><a href="rzakzsysvaltable.htm">System value parameters</a></strong> <p>View
a complete list of all of the system values. In addition, you can find each
system value's character-based parameter values, type, and length. Use the
character-based values when writing a program that sets or retrieves a system
value or if you are working with the character-based interface.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, you can manage system values using <a href="../rzatg/rzatgoverview.htm">iSeries Navigator
tasks on the Web</a>. This allows you to work with system values using
a Web browser. Not only can you work with the system values function of iSeries Navigator,
but also the time management function that allows you to work with the time
zone (QTIMZON) and time adjustment (QTIMADJ) system values.</p>
