Editing Registry Variables
You can edit a newly-created or an existing variable and assign it a global default value,
associate values with specific topology types or objects, or configure performance
calendars for each value.
For instructions, see the following sections:
•“Getting started with variable definitions” on page 200
•“Specifying values” on page 201
•“Using performance calendars” on page 204
•“Scoping variables to topology types or object instances” on page 206

To get started with editing variable definitions:
