NetBase for MPE Reference Guide
Using CONFIG
3-9
NFA - Server Allocation Time-out
This is the number of seconds that NetBase will wait for a remote server to be allocated to a user
process. The default is 60 seconds. If the system is heavily loaded, and server allocation time-outs
are being experienced, this limit should be increased. This number must be between 20 and 600
seconds. This parameter takes effect when new server processes are started.
Default = 60
NFA - Server Initial Priority
The priority queue in which a server process will run when a user is first activated. Entering SAME
will cause the server to be scheduled in the same queue as the originating process. This parameter
takes effect when NetBase is started.
Default = CS
NFA - Server LIB= load flag
This parameter specifies the library to be loaded when the servers are created. Valid values are S, P
and G for the system, public and group libraries respectively. Normally, the servers should be
loaded with the system library. This parameter takes effect when NetBase is started.
Default = P
NFA - Lock Priority Boosting
This parameter enables users locking remote files to also lock a local file. This causes MPE to boost
the priority of low priority processes that hold a lock that a higher priority process is waiting for.
This should be enabled if user processes are waiting because a batch job is holding a remote lock.
This parameter takes effect when a user process is started.
Default = N
NFA - Client Inactivity Timeout
This parameter sets the time-out value (in seconds) for the maximum time a server can be inactive
before it terminates the connection to a client. Inactivity is defined as having no calls made to the
server process. The range of values is 0 to 3276 seconds. Setting this value to 0 disables the time-
out. This parameter takes effect when new server processes are allocated.
Default = 0 (seconds)
Maximum = 3276 (seconds)
