This is more or less correct.

That is, in at least one way, it is correct that this is the actual definition 
supplied by IBM. The help text for the CHGUSRPRF LMTCPB() parameter includes 
the statement above at least through V5R1.

But it clearly is either an incorrect statement or a statement that needs 
significant clarification from IBM because it flies in the face of experience 
and contradicts manuals such as the Security Reference.
