DL/I BATCH TIMEOUT field (DLITOUT subsystem parameter)
The DLITOUT subsystem parameter controls the number of resource timeout values that a DL/I batch connection is to wait for a lock to be released. The resource timeout value is specified in the RESOURCE TIMEOUT field.
| Acceptable values: | 1–254 |
|---|---|
| Default: | 6 |
| Update: | option 32 on panel DSNTIPB |
| DSNZPxxx: | DSN6SPRM DLITOUT |
For example, if you use the default value of 6, a DL/I batch application can wait 6 times the resource timeout value for a resource. This option gives you flexibility in tuning your system to avoid timeouts.
