Specifies the number of times dialing is to be retried before returning a dialing error to VTAM®. The interval specified by the REDDELAY operand will be observed between redials for Enterprise Extender connections.

If you code 0, dialing is not retried. If you code FOREVER and the switched PU is used for an Enterprise Extender connection, dialing is retried as necessary until either a connection is established or the PU is deactivated. If you code FOREVER and the PU is not used for an Enterprise Extender connection, the value 254 is used.
