RE: Used prestart jobs

Interesting question Yves!  
Best I can tell, subsystem monitor job controls reuse limit.  I am not sure
of its internal workings.

You can control PJs reuse by CHGPJE ... MAXUSE(1)
Once you set it to 1, you know that it can only be used once :)
Nice thing about this setting is that it doesn't negatively impact PJs
function, but it may affect performance a bit.  If you get a lot of new
connection requests, new jobs would have to be started for each connection.
Job startup cost is considered an expensive operation on the iSeries.

Perhaps you can create a DCR with IBM to give us a command that would show
the "reuse" count?

Is there a way to tell how many times a prestart job has been "used"?
