TRANSFER Network
Receiver (TRECV)
TRECV servers are allocated by TFRONTs to handle all incoming network operations.
The TFRONTs assign a TRECV for remote TWORKs as needed.
The TRECV server class definition can be modified; however, great care must be
exercised to ensure that deadlocks do not occur while TRANSFER is running. The
MAXSERVERS parameter value must equal or exceed the number of TFRONT
pseudo-terminals you define. The LINKDEPTH and MAXLINKS parameter values
must be set to 1. Do not set the PATHWAY IOTIMEOUT parameter for this server
class; TRECV operations are often long.
The TRECV server class can be assigned a log and a debug log file. The log file
receives messages for all types of server activity. Messages related to serious problems
encountered by the server are duplicated in the server OUT file as long as the server
OUT file and the log file are not the same file. A log file is recommended because it
contains information needed to diagnose problems. The LOGRECSPEROPEN
parameter limits the size of the log file.
PARAM specifications that you can change are listed in Table 7-7. The MAXREPLY
PARAM specification set by the SET SERVER command has no effect on TRECV
servers.
