| Parameter | cache_size |
|---|
| Type | Value |
|---|
| Value |  This parameter may affect Charon performance. Do not change this parameter until advised by Stromasys
"cache_size" defines the amount of memory in megabytes allocated to the ACE cache. Default value is 1GB (1024 MB). Example: set ace cache_size = 2048 |
This parameter may be changed for performance optimization in case of some guest OS specific tasks (see the section below). |

num_translators
| Parameter | num_translators |
|---|
| Type | Value |
|---|
| Value | This parameter may affect Charon performance. Do not change this parameter until advised by Stromasys "num_translators" defines the number of ACE translators. Default value in most situations is number of I/O CPUs dedicated to CHARON (defined by "n_of_io_cpus" parameter) minus 1, but in some specific situations it may be set to some other value for better performance. Example: set ace num_translators = 4 |

| Parameter | dsrdb[n] |
|---|
| Type | Numeric |
|---|
| Value | DSRDB - Dynamic System Recognition Data Block. These parameters allow changing the emulated hardware model type. dsrdb[0] stands for SMM - System Marketing Model. Example: 471924947 describes connection between "dsrdb" parameter and the rest of the parameters defining an exact HP Alpha model - including SMM. |

version
| Parameter | version |
|---|
| Type | Text string |

| Value | Sets Console and PAL code versions in the following way: | Function | Command |
|---|
| Set SRM Console version to X.Y-Z |
set rom version[0] = x.y-z |
| | Set OpenVMS PAL code version to X.Y-Z |
set rom version[1] = x.y-z |
| | Set Tru64 UNIX PAL code version to X.Y-Z |
set rom version[2] = x.y-z |
|
Example: set rom version[0] = 7.3-1 version[1] = 1.98-104 version[2] = 1.92-105 |
