MAXOPT—Set maximum sessions to optimize of commands

The MAXOPT command controls the number of sessions that ULTRAOPT optimizes. Every time a user logs on to a new session, the MAXOPT value is checked against the number of sessions currently being optimized. If the maximum has not been reached, the session is allowed to be optimized, although the include and exclude rules might still prevent it from being optimized. MAXOPT is supported in environments where the product is permanently authorized.

MAXOPT can be entered as an operator command from the MVS console in the format subsysid MAXOPT=xxxxx. subsysid is the name of the ULTRAOPT subsystem that was established when ULTRAOPT was installed and xxxxx is the maximum number of sessions that can be optimized from 0 to 99999. A pound sign (#) means unlimited sessions may be optimized. When set to zero, no new sessions will be optimized. The default is ##### (unlimited sessions).

Optimization of sessions is dynamic while MAXOPT is in effect. As optimized sessions terminate, existing sessions (which have not been optimized because MAXOPT was exceeded) begin to be optimized.

Warning

Note

Reducing your MAXOPT setting or changing it to zero does not cause ULTRAOPT to stop optimizing current sessions until the session ends.
