EXTENDEDCONSOLES Parameter

This parameter specifies the number of extended consoles (without MIGIDs) that CA OPS/MVS activates at startup. The recommended value for EXTENDEDCONSOLES is five more than the maximum number of all OSF servers (five plus the sum of OSFMAX, OSFTSLMAX, and OSFTSPMAX).

Important: Allocating an excessive number of extended, migration, and extra extended consoles may impact the amount of time it takes to process messages.

Note: For more information about MIGIDs and the CA OPS/MVS support for extended consoles, see the Administration Guide.

Default value

15

This default value of 15 is equal to five plus the sum of the defaults for OSFMAX, OSFTSLMAX, and OSFTSPMAX.

Other possible values

Any number from 0 to 99
