Default: 2

NOTE: The values 0 and 1 are not supported. BMC recommends to only use value 2.

  • N – Implements SET NOVERIFY, which does not print commands in the job OUTPUT
  • E – Specifies that the verification value is taken from the environment

Modifiable by ctmwincfg: No

Modifiable by ctmunixcfg: No

RJX_POOL_CONNECTION_LIMIT

Specifies how many jobs can make use of a single connection. The connections are monitored and unused ones (connections with ended jobs) are released.
