tag
input
INT(32):value
is for use in nowait mode only. Specify a unique value to identify this instance of
the procedure call. When the operation is complete, the MFM_AWAITIOX_
procedure returns the tag value, allowing you to match the completion with the
correct instance of the procedure call.
block-size
input
INT:value
is an optional parameter that determines how events are to be retrieved. By
default, APS retrieves events in 30,000-byte blocks. This parameter enables
you to specify smaller block sizes for individual requests, and thereby increase
throughput.
The valid values for this parameter are 1,500 to 30,000.
