You can specify AUTO, or an integer from 1 through 123.

UNLOAD PLUS ignores this option for referenced files.

Specifying the default

You can specify the default for the NBRSECD command option in your installation options module by using the NBRSECD installation option. UNLOAD PLUS was shipped with a default value of AUTO for this option. The command option overrides the default that is in the installation options module.

AUTO

If you specify AUTO, UNLOAD PLUS considers the following criteria and uses a value of either 16 or 123:

  • If the allocation is non-SMS or SMS and the data set will not be in extended format, UNLOAD PLUS uses a value of 16.
  • If the allocation is SMS and UNLOAD PLUS allocates the data set in extended format, UNLOAD PLUS uses a value of 123.

integer

If you specify an integer, the value can range from 1 through 123.

For non-SMS allocations, the maximum value that you can specify for NBRSECD is 16. If you specify a value that is greater than 16, UNLOAD PLUS uses a value of 16.
