Specifies how pacing is handled between the logical unit and the boundary node to which it is connected.

PACING can sift down from the GROUP statement to the LU statement, but it does not sift from the GROUP statement to the PU statement, nor does it sift from the PU statement to the LU statement.

Note: You can also use the FIXED option on this operand. FIXED is an NCP option that allows you to override adaptive session pacing and used fixed pacing instead. To use the FIXED option, you must code (N,,FIXED). The second comma represents a minimum value that is used by some pre-ENA nodes.

For more information on pacing, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide.

Note: If a dynamic CDRSC (ILU) uses a dynamic PU created from a MODEL definition, the PACING values are obtained from the PU definition in the MODEL major node that was used to define the dynamic PU.
