SRCOUNT

Read syntax diagramSkip visual syntax diagramSRCOUNT=number_of_search_requests
Specifies for this resource how many search requests can be limited before VTAM® performs another resource discovery search. It is meaningful only when search reduction is active (SRCHRED=ON). This operand overrides the value of the SRCOUNT start option for this CDRSC.
Note:
  1. If SRCOUNT=0 is coded, then the search count threshold is not used and the SRTIMER value alone will control when to attempt another search.
  2. If neither SRCOUNT or SRTIMER is coded on the CDRSC statement and SRCHRED=ON, then the SRCOUNT and SRTIMER start option values will be used.
  3. If SRCOUNT is coded, an APPN directory entry will be created (if one does not exist for the resource) in addition to the CDRSC defined by this definition statement.
