Use Authorized Path Facility

With the load modules in an authorized library, the product can run as a non-swappable application and use the VTAM Authorized Path Facility (APF) and write SMF records. The APF facility saves 20 to 30 percent of your CPU overhead. The APF facility is required for VTAM generic resource support.

To use VTAM Authorized Path Facility

  1. Specify Y in the VTAM Authorized Path Facility field of the Performance Parameters panel.

    For information about changing the performance parameters, see the Administration Guide.

  2. Specify YES on the SRBEXIT parameter of each APPL statement in your major node.
