This procedure enables you to configure the AS Java on a template and an instance level. You can edit the server processes (nodes), the JVM settings, the cluster elements' properties and so on.
If you change properties on an instance, the changes apply only to this instance.
You cannot make log configuration. To do that, use the GUI Config Tool.

Start the command console Config Tool by double-clicking the consoleconfig script file in <SAP_install_dir>/<system_name>/<instance_name>/j2ee/configtool directory.
From the console menu, select <Template_name> or <Instance_number> , depending on the level you want to configure.
We recommend that you do not edit template properties containing value links. For example:
Template property: initialHeapSize
Value link: 128 max ($link{.#maxNewSize.value}+64
