NCLQUEUE SET

LIMIT= number
sets the execution limit for the specified queue for each NCL processing
environment. You can specify a number from 0 through 32767. Specifying 0 stops
all queued NCL processes from executing, although NCL processes that are
currently executing continue to execute. NCL processes in the queue begin to
execute in turn when you next specify a number greater than 0. You can specify 0
to temporarily stop the number of queued NCL processes that are executing.
Note The execution limit is set globally but is applied locally to each NCL processing environment that sends
NCL processes to an NCL queue. A change to the execution limit immediately affects NCL processes
queued from each NCL processing environment. Therefore, changing the execution limit for an NCL
queue can affect many users.
Considerations
The default authority level of this command is 4.
You can enter this command from any NCL procedure, including the INIT NCL
procedure, by using either the CMD core statement or the INTCMD verb.
An NCL queue file stores information about each delayed or queued NCL process
(although NCL queue names and execution limits are kept in global memory). See
the PARAM NCLQUEUESVOL command for more information.
Refer to the NonStop NET/MASTER MS NCL Reference Manual for more
information about the START verb.
For related information, see the PARAM NCLQUEUESVOL, NCLQUEUE RESET,
SHOW NCL, and SHOW NCLQUEUE commands.
Examples
1. The following example defines a new queue called ABC and sets an execution
limit of 5 NCL processes for each NCL processing environment:
NCLQUEUE SET=ABC LIMIT=5
2. The following example modifies the execution limit of the existing queue called
ABC to 10 NCL processes for each NCL processing environment:
NCLQUEUE SET=ABC LIMIT=10
