My recommendation is not to change the db value without getting approval from F5. I have run into issues where the wrong db value has caused breakdown of F5 due to issues like memory leak/corruption. I would also recommend considering the business requirement of such a request. Can you push back on this request ? Is there a significant value-add for such a change ? Also, if possible, open up a case with F5 to confirm if it is okay to change the db value before making any such changes.
