OSFRECYCLE Parameter

The OSFRECYCLE parameter determines the number of completed OSF server transactions that can run in a server before CA OPS/MVS recycles the server. This parameter applies to OSF TSL, TSO, and TSP servers.

Typically, you should let the value of the OSFRECYCLE parameter default to 0, so that no recycling is performed. However, under some conditions, private area storage in the server address space is not correctly freed at the end of each server transaction. When this happens, storage-related abends in other transactions may result. Under these conditions, you may decide to set the OSFRECYCLE parameter to a reasonable value that causes CA OPS/MVS to recycle the servers after a particular number of transactions. Doing so alleviates the residual storage problems.
