CKPT

Defines how often (based on record count) the sending system requests a checkpoint to be taken. The value 0 indicates no checkpointing.

Note: Setting CKPT affects performance. Each time a checkpoint is taken, the output buffers on the receiving system are written to the disk. On Token Ring, Ethernet, and other high-speed networks, CKPT should be set to 0 or to the highest allowable value. CKPT should not be set for small files.

Range: 0 to 9999

Default: 1000

Notes:

Alias of CHECKPOINT_COUNT
CA XCOM Data Transport automatically sets CHECKPOINT_COUNT to 0 if any of the following parameter values are set:
- (L)EAR_CIPHER=XXX-OFB
- (L)EAR_CIPHER=RC4
- (L)EAR_HASH=XXX
This is a Version 2 parameter.
