LU_TAKEOVER

The LU_TAKEOVER parameter specifies whether LU takeover processing is used for controlling unused LU resources at the server.

LU takeover is one technique for controlling unused LU resources at the server. When a new TN3270E session request specifies an LU that is in use at the server, the TN3270E server sends a timing mark to the client of that connection. If the client does not respond to the timing mark within the number of seconds that you specify, the server disconnects the session and assigns the LU to the new connection request.

LU takeover enables you to disconnect unused sessions when they are needed, without the additional network traffic generated by keepalive detection. Keepalive detection enables you to free unused connections more frequently, but generates more network traffic.

This parameter is required. The default is 0.
