The table below lists the Recovery Kit for EC2™ parameters. These values are set by adding them to the %LKROOT%\etc\default\LifeKeeper configuration file. Because none of the components of the Recovery Kit for EC2™ are memory resident, changes to these particular values become effective immediately after they are changed in %LKROOT%\etc\default\LifeKeeper without requiring a LifeKeeper restart.
