The following tasks explain how to change an existing remote service definition.

1. Stop the service first.
2. Then use the MOD SERVICE command to change the service information. Use the LMID and NAME parameters to specify the service you want to modify. The TIMEOUT parameter in the SERVICE TYPE=REMOTE statement is the only parameter that can be modified with this command and is required.

The example in the listing below uses the MOD SERVICE command. In this case, the NAME parameter only specifies the local name, rather than the fully qualified (local name, remote name) syntax.
