7.3.1.19 CONFIGURATION File Retention Limit (CONFIGLIMIT)

The CONFIGLIMIT statement is optional and has the
following format:

CONFIGLIMIT nnn (Range from 0 to 366)

The value of nnn is specified in days with the CONFIGLIMIT
parameter.  It may be any value in the range of 0 to 366
days.  If the statement is invalid, a value of 120 days is
used.

If the CONFIGLIMIT option statement is omitted, a default
of CONFIGLIMIT 30 will be used.

The Operations Configuration File (OPSCON) in the Operations
Information Area is only maintained in one cycle at the
DETAIL level.  When the file is updated as part of the
CA MICS DAILY run, the existing data and the new data are
merged. Data is dropped if it is older than is specified by
the retention limit.  The limit is specified in this
parameter.
