Software Configuration Maximums (MPE/iX 5.0) 

The following are the software maximums that must be adhered to when
configuring a supported link.  These maximums may be further limited by
the system hardware (number of available slots).  Maximums are also
documented throughout the manual for the appropriate screen.
