Dynamically implementing new settings with the Activate command


The Activate line command can be used to dynamically change the BBPARM members currently in use by a BBI-SS PAS without restarting the BBI-SS PAS.

The command is specified on the main Dynamic Parameter Manager panel (see example in Access-the-Dynamic-Parameter-Manager).

The following figure shows an example of the the Confirm Parameter Activation panel that is displayed after you enter the Activate line command.
