7.3.4.6 WFI/NOWFI Statement

This optional parameter indicates whether WFI AutoFlush will
be activated; omitting this parameter from the IMSOPS member
prevents WFI AutoFlush processing.  This is a global scope
parameter and if specified, will apply to all IMS regions
defined by OPTIONS statements within the IMSOPS member.  The
parameter can be specified as either:

WFI

or

WFI(n)

where n = a value from 1 to 65535

The WFI option is used to activate WFI AutoFlush processing.
Adding the (n) after this parameter allows you to
artificially lower the WFI AutoFlush horizon.  For example,
assume that there are no other "non-never ending" WFI
transactions that have a PROCLIM greater than 10,000.  By
changing the AutoFlush Horizon to 10,000, transactions will
be identified as being "never ending" at a much earlier point
in time during processing.

Note: Since these transactions are now written to DAY060 more
frequently, it may be necessary to increase the space
requirements for the DAY060 WORK files.

DEFAULT: NOWFI
