Thank you, Miguel.
From the comments in the file, after the system ID, there are two
tokens on each line:
the userid of the TCP/IP virtual machine (which apparently
is automatically filled in if you put in "TCPIPUSERID")
the default userid
I don't understand where these values are used. Can you elaborate?

This can be handled in the TCPIP DATA file itself. It has support
for multiple system IDs (with some rather archaic syntax):
for example, if the System ID of your machine is SYSID1 and the
System ID of your DR machine is DRSYS1 then the following would
select the appropriate TCPIPUSERID based on the machine:
SYSID1: TCPIPUSERID TCPIP
DRSYS1: TCPIPUSERID TCPDR
