-------------- INITIALIZATION PARAMETERS --------------
-- These parameters are nonreconfigurable,
-- initialization parameters that are fixed after
-- INITIALIZATION has successfully completed. The
-- QUEUE file is used during both initialization and
-- redefinition. If the file is moved to another
-- subvolume, you must alter the File parameter
-- value before redefining the Queue Manager or the
-- redefinition will not work.
PQInitOut $S.#QUEUE.INIT
-- Specifies the output device or process for all the
-- programs run by the GPQINIT obey file, which
-- initializes the Queue Manager. If you do not
-- include this parameter, all output from
-- initialization is written to the terminal from
-- which GPQINIT is run. Optional, initialization
-- parameter.
PQQueueFile $vol.subvol.QUEUE
-- Specifies the initial file name for the Queue Manager
-- data file. Enter the volume and
-- subvolume names. You can change the default file name.
PQQueueFileExts (10,20)
-- Specifies extents for the Queue Manager data file.
-- You can change the default values to
-- valid extents accepted by the File Utility Program (FUP).
PQQueueFileRecLength 2034
-- Specifies the record length for the Queue Manager
-- data file. You can change the default
-- value to a record length from 132 to 2034.
PQQueueFileSecurity OOOO
-- Specifies the initial file security for the Queue
-- Manager data file.
--
-- Any valid GUARDIAN 90 file security is allowed
-- except that READ and WRITE securities cannot be
-- SUPER.SUPER.
Step 4: Define Queue
Manager
The system definition step generates the information from which Queue Manager is
initialized, configured, started and stopped. The CDPQDEF definition file uses system
descriptions you provided in the DEFINEPQ file (the edited version of the PQDEFLTS
file) to generate files that perform these tasks for a PATHWAY configuration.
The define file — CDPQDEF — provides a commonly applicable range of parameter
values for Queue Manager applications. If a definition results in a PATHWAY
configuration that is not appropriate for your site, you can make changes by
customizing Queue Manager as described later in this section.
