RE: Where are system values stored?

Thanks, everyone.  Parseing Ye Old Spoole File is what I'll be doing.


For 70-some-odd machines it's also not unreasonable to write a CL that
does a RTVSYSVAL for each system value and drops the current value into
a database -- possibly centralized. Then run this CL each day and keep a
running history of system values and their changes.

Getting a complete list of system values is rather trivial, just dump
the space Al mentioned and you can copy/paste them right into a CL.
Probably take 30 minutes to have the complete system up and running, and
you won't be relying on the format of the system value print.
