Defining and Altering Job and Session Parameters
The System Operator can alter the parameters of the JOB and SESSION
commands at any time, using the MISC Configurator. Two of these
parameters are the same for both jobs and sessions: MAXLIMIT and POOL.
The others are used specifically for either jobs or sessions.
MAXLIMIT: Limiting Number of Jobs and Sessions
The MAXLIMIT parameter defines the maximum session or job limit that can
be set by the System Operator with the MPE XL :LIMIT command. For
example, enter:
MISC>SESSION MAXLIMIT = 100 or
JOB MAXLIMIT = 10
POOL: Setting Number of JSMAINs
MPE XL maintains processes, called JSMAINs, that are used to allocate and
deallocate system resources to and from jobs and sessions. Each job or
session is assigned a JSMAIN when created. When a job or session is
terminated, its JSMAIN process becomes available for use. Although
several hundred JSMAINs can be in use concurrently, it is advisable to
set the system for as few as possible to start with, checking the system
for optimum performance as you raise or lower the number.
MI>SESSION POOL = 150 or
JOB POOL = 10
