A.6.2 Update OpenVMS System Parameters
The system parameter values computed by the OpenVMS Parameter Calculator are the
amounts you need to add to your current OpenVMS system in order to make it ready to run
Caché. Caché will consume this much memory, so evaluate your system to make sure that
there is the proper amount of memory available.
Use this table to help you combine the required amounts returned by the calculator with your
current system values. Update these parameters by using the SET command of the OpenVMS
SYSGEN utility.

A.6.3 Update Special OpenVMS Parameters
The parameter calculator provides a few special parameters used to configure Caché on your
OpenVMS system:
• The Resident Memory value is necessary if you want to create a named Resident Memory
Section for Caché.
• The values for the special parameters PRIORITY_OFFSET and PE1 are fixed values
recommended by InterSystems; set these parameters to the recommended values.
Verify the values returned by the calculator match those of your OpenVMS system.
