PROTRECONCILEBATCHCOUNT
The PROTRECONCILEBATCHCOUNT option specifies the maximum number of parallel sessions that are used to reconcile data on source and target replication servers during a storage pool protection operation.
To update this server option without stopping and restarting the server, use the SETOPT command.
When you issue the PROTECT STGPOOL command and specify the FORCERECONCILE=YES parameter value, the server compares all data extents on the source replication server with data extents on the target replication server and synchronizes the data extents. By default, the server uses all available sessions to process the reconcile operation. This might cause an increase in the amount of temporary database space that is used on the target replication server. To limit the number of sessions that are used for reconciliation, specify a maximum number of sessions by setting the PROTRECONCILEBATCHCOUNT option.
Syntax
Parameters
- number_of_sessions
- Specifies the maximum number of parallel sessions that are used for reconcile operations when you issue the PROTECT STGPOOL command and specify the FORCERECONCILE=YES parameter value. You can specify a value in the range 0 - 1024. The default value is 0. When the value is set to 0, the server uses the number of sessions that are specified in the MAXSESSIONS parameter value in the PROTECT STGPOOL command. After the reconcile operation is completed, the server resumes protection operations by using the number of sessions that are specified in the MAXSESSIONS parameter value.
Example
Set the maximum number of parallel sessions to 6:
