LPA
The LPA system initialization parameter specifies whether CICS and user modules can be used from the link pack areas.
- LPA={NO|YES}
- Valid values are as follows:
- NO
- will not load CICS or user modules from the link pack areas.
- YES
- CICS or usermodules installed in the LPA or in the ELPA
can be used from there, instead of being loaded into the CICS region.
A list of the CICS modules that are read-only, and hence eligible for residence in the link pack areas (LPA or ELPA), are contained in the SMP/E USERMOD supplied on the distribution tape in the CICSTS52.CICS.SDFHSAMP, in a member called DFH$UMOD. For details of the CICS system initialization parameter PRVMOD that you can use to override LPA=YES for selected modules, see topic PRVMOD.
