Configuration Parameters › CONFIG Member Parameters › COMPNEG

COMPNEG

Specifies whether compression negotiation is performed.

YES

Specifies that the data compression method is negotiated.

NO

Specifies that the data compression method is not negotiated.

Default: YES

Notes:

• If COMPNEG=YES and the compression method suggested by the initiator or partner LU is known to both participants, that method is used to compress the transfer data.
• If the suggested compression method is not known to a participant involved in the transfer, Run Length Encoding of blanks and zeros is applied to the data to be transferred.
• If an unknown compression type is requested, the file transfer is rejected.

CONTIG

Use contiguous space allocation.

YES

Specifies that contiguous space allocation is used.

NO

Specifies that contiguous space allocation is not used.

Default: NO

CREATEDELETE

Specifies whether the CREATEDELETE transfer (SYSIN01) parameter should be permitted.

Important! Review the CREATEDELETE transfer parameter before permitting its use.

YES

Specifies that CREATEDELETE should always be attempted if possible; so the CREATEDELETE transfer parameter is always set to YES.

NO

Specifies that the use of CREATEDELETE is not permitted; so the CREATEDELETE transfer parameter is always set to NO.

ALLOW

Specifies that the use of CREATEDELETE is permitted.

Default: NO

CREATEDELOVRD

Specifies whether CA XCOM Data Transport should allow a CREATEDELETE to occur if the target data set is protected with an expiration date (EXPDT) and the data set has not yet expired.

YES

Allow the CREATEDELETE to proceed; the target data set is reallocated as described by the CREATEDELETE option.

NO

Deny the CREATEDELETE; the transfer fails, because the data set expiration date has not been reached.

Default: NO
