This message typically appears in the context of database administration tasks, particularly when using the SAP Database Manager (DBM) to configure database settings.
  Cause:
  
  The message is triggered when a DBM configuration parameter is changed or updated successfully. The parameter indicated by &1 is the specific configuration setting that has been modified.
  
  Solution:
  Since this message is informational and does not indicate an error, no specific action is required unless you are experiencing issues related to the parameter that was updated. However, if you need to ensure that the changes are effective or to troubleshoot any related issues, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Verify the Parameter Change: Check the DBM configuration to confirm that the parameter has been updated as intended. You can do this by using the appropriate DBM commands or tools.
  
  
  Monitor Database Performance: After updating the parameter, monitor the database performance to ensure that the change has had the desired effect. Look for any performance improvements or issues.
