| statements: | TRLE |

Specifies whether multiple usage (sharing) or single usage (exclusive) of an MPC (with HPDT) group is allowed. This keyword is ignored for non-HPDT capable MPC groups. Users of the MPC group are the various protocol stacks (for example, APPN or TCP/IP).
- MPCUSAGE=SHR
- Indicates this group can be used by multiple protocol stacks at the same time.
- MPCUSAGE=EXC
- Indicates this group can be used only by a single protocol stack at a time. The first to activate the group becomes the exclusive user of that MPC group. All subsequent activation attempts (while the group is in use) will be rejected. Defining exclusive usage will provide improved performance.
