LXCONMAX Parameter

This parameter limits the number of LXCON events that CA OPS/MVS can receive in a given second before it shuts down the Linux Connector interface. This parameter is designed to prevent a loop in the Linux Connector interface processing from disabling all of your automation.

Note: The Linux Connector interface task is activated and LXCON events are passed to CA OPS/MVS only if the INITLXC parameter is set to either ON or YES.

The LXCONMAX parameter dictates the maximum value of the LXCON counter kept by the LXCONCURRENT parameter. When the value of LXCONCURRENT reaches the value of LXCONMAX, the Linux Connector interface terminates but can be restarted with a MODIFY command. Setting the LXCONMAX parameter to its maximum value prevents CA OPS/MVS from ever shutting down the Linux Connector interface task due to an excessive LXCON rate. Doing so could impact your other automation.

Default value

1000 (if the LXCON interface is active).

Other possible values

Any number of LXCON events from 100 through100000

Set or modify this parameter...

Anytime

Example: LXCONMAX

This function sets the LXCON event limit to 500 events:

OPSPRM('SET','LXCONMAX','500')

Note: If the parameter is not set before the initial start of the Linux Connector Interface, the value is zero.
