MAXPROCESS = number of executing PNODE and SNODE Processes

This parameter specifies the maximum number of executing PNODE and SNODE Processes allowed at one time. The value allowed is between 2 and 1024, inclusive. The default is the value of MAXPRIMARY + MAXSECONDARY.

Modifiable through MODIFY INITPARMS command: NO

Note: Although 1024 is the maximum valid value for this parameter, MAXPROCESS should be set to 150 or less.

Note: If you are using IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS based on a license for the Simultaneous Session metric, you should set the MAXPROCESS value to be equal to or less than the number of Simultaneous Session entitlements included with your license. You must obtain entitlements sufficient to cover the highest number of sessions that are or have been simultaneously in existence across all instances or copies of the software you have installed. Using the MAXPROCESS parameter allows you to control and limit the number of Simultaneous Sessions used with each copy of IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS.
