Quantity (-QTY)

Use the Quantity command (-QTY) to capture the number of files to be retrieved by the adapter.

If you are running in burst mode, each burst might return less than -QTY messages, but the total number of messages returned by the adapter will not exceed the value specified by the -QTY command.

If not specified, the default quantity is the FetchUnit size of the burst.

The number of files to be retrieved by the adapter

If you want the maximum number of files retrieved in burst mode to be infinite, then you must set the -QTY command option number to 'S' and specify "-LSN 0" on the command line. The -LSN command is currently unsupported, however, it must be used with the -QTY command in this scenario only.
