Multiple Instances Enabled

Specifies whether multiple servant process instances are enabled for this server.

When the Multiple Instances Enabled setting is disabled, the server has exactly one servant process instance. When the Multiple Instances Enabled setting is enabled:
  • The Minimum number of instances setting determines the minimum number of process instances that are active for this server.
  • The Maximum number of instances setting determines the maximum number of process instances that can be active for this server.

The z/OS® Workload Manager dynamically determines the actual number of servant process instances.
