Ah, ha, Another secret command! V4R1 I think. The plot thickens in V5R2 with the new system value, QSPLFACN, for Spooled File Action. The default is *KEEP, which says to keep the job structure once the job ends, but the alternative option is *DETACH, which says to detach the job structure from the spooled files once the job ends and destroy it. This effectively allows you to have more jobs on the system, but prohibits you from doing a WRKJOB/DSPJOB to a job that has completed! You might also want to check out the new V5R1 system value QMAXJOB, which specifies the maximum number of jobs on the system, which is shipped at the (not so) obvious value of 163,520. The lower limit is 32,000. (Previously, the maximum number of jobs on a system was 32767, a vaguely familiar number.) The maximum number of jobs on a system is 485,000. The maximum number of spooled files on a system is 2,800,000, but because of a bug in V5R2 (unsure of fix status) is 1,300,000. Given the new system value, QMAXSPLF, added in V5R1, which allows the maximum number of spooled files per job to be increased from the old limit of 9999 to the new upper limit of 999,999, the 2.8 M limit would seem to be too low. The good news is that the system keeps scaling and growing!

I think midrange-l-bounces@x idrange.com 03/25/2003 08:48 AM Please respond to Midrange Systems Technical Discussion When did the DSPJOBTBL command become available as I've never heard of it before? I've spent years trying to explain to various people the effect of the number of jobs in the WCBT has on performance. Also what is the difference between the job table numbers? The help text is far from informative.
