Each loaded process starts with an identical set of environment variables. Modifying a process environment affects only that process. Environments are not currently inherited on process creation.

On INtime for Windows, the environment is determined by the contents of the "Node Management->Advanced->CLIB" section and the value of certain Windows environment variables if they exist.

On INtime Distributed RTOS, the environment is determined by the [CLIB] section of the rtconfig.sys file.
