Global configuration values (GCVs) are settings that are similar to driver parameters. Global configuration values are specified for a driver set as well as an individual driver. If a driver does not have a GCV, the driver inherits the value for that GCV from the driver set. GCVs allow you to specify settings for new Identity Manager features such as password synchronization and driver heartbeat, as well as settings that are specific to the GroupWise driver. For more information and a list of all of the GroupWise driver GCVs, refer to Section C.2, Global Configuration Values.
