;STYPE= Session Type Name
;LIMIT= New Session Limit
Parameters
Session Type Name
Required. A session type that is configured in the
APPC subsystem configuration file.
New Session Limit
Required. The new number of active sessions for the
session type. The following restrictions apply to the
new session limit:
1. The new session limit for the specified session type
may not exceed the Maximum Number of
Sessions value configured for the session type. To
find out the Maximum Number of Sessions value
for a session type, issue the APPCCONTROL STATUS
command, described later in this chapter. See
Chapter 4 , “APPC Subsystem Configuration,” for
information on session type configuration.
2. The total number of simultaneously active sessions,
for all LU 6.2 products using the APPC subsystem,
may not exceed 256.
Description
The APPCCONTROL SESSIONS command changes the number of active
sessions for a specified session type. The new session limit for the
session type is in effect only while the APPC subsystem is currently
active; the APPCCONTROL SESSIONS command does not update the
APPC subsystem configuration file.
When you issue the APPCCONTROL SESSIONS command to raise the
session limit for a session type, sessions will be activated until the new
session limit is reached.
