MAXSOCKETS
The MAXSOCKETS system initialization parameter specifies the maximum number of IP sockets that can be managed by the CICS sockets domain.
- MAXSOCKETS={65535|number}
- Set a suitable value that does not exceed the maximum value as
defined in the MAXFILEPROC parameter in SYS1.PARMLIB
member BPXPRMxx. If you specify a value greater than the MAXFILEPROC parameter,
CICS issues message DFHSO0124, which specifies the
value that CICS has used for this parameter. If the CICS region user
ID has superuser authority, the MAXFILEPROC parameter
does not limit the setting of MAXSOCKETS.
The maximum number of sockets must be greater than the maximum number of inbound and outbound sockets used by CICS including the number of TCPIPSERVICE resources in service.
