Startup parameter: cache_slots

Startup parameters change the behavior of the HPE Service Manager server. You can always set a startup parameter from the server's operating system command prompt.

Parameter

Description

This parameter defines the number of hash slots the HPE Service Manager server allocates to the cache table. You can use the reportcache parameter to gauge the effectiveness of your cache allocation.
