Server Commands
Maxlinks max-number
specifies the maximum number of concurrent links permitted between all
LINKMON processes—therefore, between requesters in all CPUs—and a server
process in the class defined by this Server directive.
max-number must be a value from 1 through 4096. This command establishes the
maximum number of concurrent send operations to a single server process. A
LINKMON process does not check how many links a server has with other
LINKMON processes.
If the value for this attribute is too large, the requests to the server process are
queued at the server. For example, if Maxlinks is equal to 20, there could be 20
concurrent requests outstanding to a server. If the transaction service time is 1
second, a response time of more than 20 seconds can occur.
If you omit this command, the default is 1.
The following Maxlinks command would allow only three concurrent requests,
from all CPUs combined, to any server in the server class:
Maxlinks 3
This command is optional.
Maxservers max-number
specifies the maximum number of servers in this server class that can run at the
same time.
max-number must be a value from 1 through 4095. If you omit this command, the
default is 1.
The operating system assigns process names in the form $Xnnn, $Ynnn, or $Znnn
after the last predefined process name is used.
An example of the Maxservers command is as follows:
Maxservers 5
This command is optional.
Numstatic max-number
specifies the maximum number of static servers within this server class.
max-number must be a value from 0 to 4095.
The value for Maxservers minus the value for Numstatic is the number of
dynamic servers for the server class. Links to dynamic servers are granted to a
LINKMON process by PATHMON when a link request cannot be satisfied by a
Note. To support sessions, the SSC’s Numstatic and Maxservers attributes must have the
same value.
