Error description

  • Implement KOBSUPDT OMEGAMON security standardization of where
    the KppSUPDI command table exits can be maintained for user
    customizations so the composite KCIJPSEC security job can take
    advantage of using the common RTE_X_SECURITY_EXIT_LIB as the
    standard user exit library.  See PARMGEN technote FAQ#37
    (https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21417935)
    for more information.
    
    Additional information from the master PARMGEN technote's
    "What's New in 1Q13A" section:
    RFE: Provide PARMGEN Workflow UI improvements
    for: A. PARMGEN Configuration Framework Enhancements/Updates:
    Implement KOBSUPDT OMEGAMON security standardization (Phase 2)
    of where the KppSUPDI  (KOCSUPDI, KO2SUPDI, KOISUPDI, and
    KOMSUPDI) Classic command table exits can be maintained for user
    customizations so the composite KCIJPSEC security job can take
    advantage of using the common RTE_X_SECURITY_EXIT_LIB as the
    standard security user exit library.  In Phase 2, the security
    exits maintained in the RTE_X_SECURITY_EXIT_LIB library will now
    be automatically presented in ISPF EDIT mode if user has further
    customizations he wants to make to the exits, prior to PARMGEN's
    presenting the composite KCIJPSEC security job for submission.
    ØBenefit: Reduce the post-configuration security steps and give
    customers one place to lock-down the security exits.
    Provide additional global RTE options on the KCIJPCFG panels to
    create a more-tailored, out-of-the box PARMGEN CONFIG profiles.
    ØBenefit: For first-time users, one has less parameters to
    customize in the profile (added 490 parameters already tailored
    automatically out of the box, if you have all the products
    configured).
    Support a more automated PARMGEN RTE CONFIG profile refresh
    mechanism when common and/or global RTE configuration values are
    modified after initial deployment.  Provide the option to
    refresh the PARMGEN user profiles (RTE and $GBL$USR)
    automatically when any global RTE values, configured product
    mix, etc. on the KCIJPCFG panels, are changed.
    ØBenefit: Reduce the profile refresh steps from 4 PARMGEN steps
    to 1 automated KCIJPCFG/KCIJPPRF job.
    In reconfiguring a System Variables-enabled RTE
    (RTE_SYSV_SYSVAR_FLAG=Y) that has local override for system
    symbols (RTE_X_SYSV_OVERRIDE_SYMBOLS=Y), submit the
    WKANSAMU(KCIJVUPV) job automatically when re-running the
    WCONFIG($PARSESV) job.
    ØBenefit: For ease of use, variable-named runtime members that
    could symbolics (*_STC started tasks, *_VTAM_NODE, etc.) are now
    created automatically in one job ($PARSESV) as opposed to
    running $PARSESV and running KCIJVUPV job, as this enhancement
    will detect if the local override flag is set in order to
    resolve the symbolics in the variable-named runtime members.
    Enhance KCIJPMC1/KCIJPMC2 merge LPAR profile values job to
    automatically use the higher values when TMS:Engine TEMS or
    Agent storage default values change.
    ØBenefit: Reduce reconfiguration requirements when required
    storage values change for a TEMS or Agent, and automating the
    KCIJPMCn merge profile processing to use the higher value
    reduces the exposure of any TMS:Engine started task to encounter
    storage quiesce startup issues.
    Enhance the library-specific $PARSE jobs ($PARSEPR IK*->WK*
    PAR*/PRF*-related "Create runtime members" job / $PARSESM
    IK*->WK* SAM-related "Create runtime members" job to remove
    IEBUPDTE steps when RTE is not enabled for System Variables.
    ØBenefit: File-tailoring the $PARSEPR and $PARSESM jobs to not
    include the IEBUPDTE-related steps of variable-named runtime
    members that could point to symbolic values, avoids generating a
    RC=4 when the job is submitted for a System Variables-enabled
    RTE.
    Enhance KCIJPSYS system set-up job to provide customer the
    option to include Health Check-related steps.
    ØBenefit: If the Health Check-related members for APF and STC
    will not be used, allowing the option to null out the
    "GBL_DSN_HZSPROC_LOADLIB" parameter generates a streamlined
    KCIJPSYS job without the extra COPYH* steps generated that will
    not be used.
    Provide a new KCIJPB2R/KCIJVB2R (if System Variables is enabled)
    fallback IEBCOPY job in WKANSAMU.  This job copies the
    %RTE_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.RK*.%CLONE% backup RK* production user
    libraries (RKANCMDU, RKANPARU, RKANSAMU, RKD2PAR, RKD2PRF and
    RKD2SAM %CLONE% copies) back into the product execution user
    libraries (RK*).                                       ØBenefit:
    If the backup libraries RK* user libraries need to be restored
    back to the versions prior to running the KCIJPW2R WK*-->RK*
    user libraries deployment job, you have a readily available job
    to do the restore.
    Provide a new KCIJVRSV System Variables resolver/wrapper job in
    WKANSAMU.  Use this generic job to resolve any PARMGEN jobs that
    contain symbolics.  Specify the "JB2RESLV" value to resolve and
    and send the job through the internal reader (INTRDR).  This job
    is applicable to generated jobs for System Variables-enabled
    RTEs ("RTE_SYSV_SYSVAR_FLAG" parameter in WCONFIG(%RTE_NAME%)
    LPAR profile is set to "Y").
    ØBenefit: The KCIJVRSV System Variables resolver job can be used
    for any of the special product standalone jobs that copy
    globals, allocate product-specific datasets, etc.
    Provide SMS support for KCIJPIVP job's
    %RTE_PLIB_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.WSUPERC sequential SUPERC dataset
    allocation based on RTE_SMS_* parameter values specified by
    customer in the WCONFIG LPAR profile, instead of inheriting the
    SMS values for the %RTE_PLIB_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.WCONFIG library.
    ØBenefit: If SMS site values change, KCIJPIVP processing will
    always use the latest specified values in the event that volume
    requirements have changed since WCONFIG library was initially
    allocated.
    Present the WCONFIG($IVPRPT) automatically upon selection of the
    "10S" KCIJPIVP job step status on the "SUBMIT BATCH JOBS TO
    COMPLETE PARMGEN SETUP" KCIP@SUB panel.
    ØBenefit: For ease of use, one has easier access to viewing the
    output of the KCIJPIVP configuration IVP job.
    ===END "Sub-section: A. 1Q13A RFEs>>A. Configuration Framework
    Enhancements/Updates:"
    
    B. PARMGEN-supported Application Configuration
    Enhancements/Updates:
    Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server (TEMS) and OMEGAMON Enhanced
    3270UI: Support a benign, placeholder UKANDATV DDNAME in the
    TEMS started task (KDS_TEMS_STC = CANSDSST by default) for any
    future TEMS and Agent function exploitation.
    ØBenefit: Generating the started task with a benign UKANDATV
    DDNAME as preparation for any future functions, avoids having to
    recycle the TEMS to add a will-be required DDNAME.
    OMEGAMON Enhanced 3270UI: Support a benign, placeholder UKANDATV
    DDNAME in the Tivoli OMEGAMON Manager (TOM) started task
    (KOB_TOM_STC = CANSTOM by default) for future Agent function
    exploitation.
    ØBenefit: Generating the started task with a benign UKANDATV
    DDNAME as preparation for any future functions, avoids having to
    recycle the TOM to add a will-be required DDNAME.
    Common Agent configuration: Support a benign, placeholder
    UKANDATV DDNAME in all Agent started tasks (Kpp_AGT_STC = CANSpp
    by default) for any future Agent function exploitation.
    ØBenefit: Generating the started task with a benign UKANDATV
    DDNAME as preparation for any future functions, avoids having to
    recycle the Agent to add a will-be required DDNAME.
    OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks V4.2.0 and higher versions:
    Provide support for generating the SYSTCPD DDNAME as an optional
    DD in the N3 Agent started task (KN3_AGT_STC = CANSN3 by
    default).                         ØBenefit: If the CANSN3 Agent
    does not require the SYSTCPD DD for connection, one may null out
    (clear out) the "GBL_DSN_TCP_SYSTCPD_TCPDATA_MFN" parameter in
    the WCONFIG($GBL$USR) so the PARMGEN $PARSE or $PARSESV "Create
    runtime members and deployment jobs" job creates the
    WKANSAMU(CANSN3) proc already tailored instead of updating the
    STC manually outside PARMGEN or ICAT controls.  In ICAT, the
    SYSTCPD DD is not optional.
    OMEGAMON XE for Messaging V7.0.0 and higher versions: Enhance
    the RKANDATV(KQIXML) PARMGEN KCIJPUSP USS set-up job processing
    by supporting a new WCONFIG(KQI$XML) override imbed to
    accommodate additonal MonitorBroker entries.  WCONFIG(KQI$XML)
    imbed is ideal for customizing additional broker entries as the
    current KQIXML template only allows for one instance.
    ØBenefit: Reduce the manual editing of RKANDATV(KQIXML)
    post-configuration by providing support for multiple broker
    lines as part of the PARMGEN configuration process, thus
    preventing overlaying user-customizations made to
    RKANDATV(KQIXML) outside configuration controls.
    OMEGAMON XE for Messaging V7.0.0 and higher versions: Increase
    the KMC_AGT_STORAGE_MINIMUM_EXTEND and
    KMQ_AGT_STORAGE_MINIMUM_EXTEND configuration default to 300000
    instead of 256000, in support of Self Describing Agent (SDA)
    functionality and other Agent new functions.  Both parameters
    are used in the OMEGAMON XE for Messaging's KMC/KMQ Agent's
    xKANPARU(KppSYSIN) MINIMUM(%Kpp_AGT_STORAGE_MINIMUM_EXTEND%,X)
    parameter.   Existing PARMGEN RTE profile values for these
    respective parameters are preserved so if you want to start
    using the new configuration default, modify the WCONFIG LPAR
    profile parameter prior to rerunning the $PARSE or $PARSESV job.
    OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM V5.1.1: Support new IBM InfoSphere
    Optim Performance Manager-related LPAR profile parameters as
    follows:  SPMON=%KD2_PFnn_READA_SPMON%,
    RACOPSIZE=%KD2_PFnn_READA_OPBUFSIZE% and
    RACOPTHRSHLD=%KD2_PFnn_READA_OPBUFTHR% (SPMON=N, RACOPSIZE=16,
    and RACOPTHRSHLD=6 default) in the xKD2PAR(OMPE&dbid) runtime
    member. For more information, please refer to the Techdoc link:
    http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27035964.
    OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM V5.1.0 and higher versions: Provide
    EXC0&profid/EXC0&dbid "Create EXPLAIN views for subsystems of
    DB2 V10 - Compatibility Mode" and EXC1&profid/EXC1&dbid "Create
    EXPLAIN views for subsystems of DB2 V10 - New Function Mode"
    jobs.

    FAQ#37.
    
    ================================================================
    ======
    SYMPTOM: The KCIJPSYS system copy job gets a RC=4 when trying to
    IEBCOPY the OMEGAMON XE for Messaging started task ("CANSMQ"
    default) to the system procedure library, but the CANSMQ started
    task does not exist in WKANSAMU library.
    DESCRIPTION: The KCIJPSYS system copy job needs to check if the
    OMEGAMON XE for Messaging components (OMXE for MQ Configuration
    [KMC] / OMXE for MQ Monitoring [KMQ]) are sharing an address
    space in the following parameters:
    
    ** Values that describe the address space:
    KMC_AGT_STC                       CANSMC
    ** (Optional) Shared address space with KMQ Agent:
    ** If the KMC Agent is running in the KMQ started task (address
    space
    ** owner), specify the KMQ Agent started task name on the
    ** "KMC_AGT_STC_OWNER" parameter.  This parameter is only valid
    when the
    ** KMC_AGT_CONFIG field is set to "STANDALONE", and is mutually
    ** exclusive with KMC_AGT_STC parameter.
    KMC_AGT_STC_OWNER                 ""
    
    ** Values that describe the address space:
    **KMQ_AGT_STC                         "CANSMQ"
    ** (Optional) Shared address space with KMC Agent:
    ** If the KMQ Agent is running in the KMC started task (address
    space
    ** owner), specify the KMC Agent started task name on the
    ** "KMQ_AGT_STC_OWNER" parameter.  This parameter is only valid
    when the
    ** KMQ_AGT_CONFIG field is set to "STANDALONE", and is mutually
    ** exclusive with KMQ_AGT_STC parameter.
    KMQ_AGT_STC_OWNER                 CANSMC
    
    WORKAROUND/TIP: : Apply the resolving 1Q13A HKCI310 PTF UA67787
    (APAR OA40649) when available.  In the interim, the KCIJPSYS
    job's RC=4 warning does not prevent the job from running, but if
    you want a RC=0 in the KCIJPSYS job, you can choose to comment
    out the IEBCOPY step that copies CANSMQ started task.
    ================================================================
    
    SYMPTOM: The OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM Classic VTAM major node
    is using the incorrect Virtual Terminal (VTPOOL) prefix for the
    OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM Classic VTAM major node VTPOOL
    APPLIDs.
    DESCRIPTION: The OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM Classic VTAM major
    node (KD2_CUA_VTAM_NODE = CTDD2N1 default) is using the
    incorrect Virtual Terminal (VTPOOL) prefix for the VTPOOL
    APPLIDs.   KD2_CUA_VTAM_VTPOOL_PREFIX PARMGEN LPAR profile
    parameter value should be used instead of what is currently
    being used (KD2_CUA_VTAM_APPL_PREFIX parameter value).
    WORKAROUND/TIP: : Apply the resolving 1Q13A HKCI310 PTF UA67787
    (APAR OA40649) when available.  In the interim, one may choose
    to supply the same value for both the KD2_CUA_VTAM_VTPOOL_PREFIX
    and KD2_CUA_VTAM_APPL_PREFIX VTAM APPLID prefix parameters so
    when $PARSE or $PARSESV/KCIJVUPV jobs create the OMEGAMON XE for
    DB2 PE/PM Classic VTAM major node, the VTPOOL APPLIDs will use
    the correct prefix.
    =============================================================
    
    SYMPTOM: The KCIJPVAL validation job or $PARSE VALIDATE step
    gets a RC=8 and in the WCONFIG($VALRPT) validation report,
    Section 1 logs "KD2_OMPE_TCPIP_NAME              &CNMTCPN.
    Length must be <= 8" when creating a brand new PARMGEN RTE that
    configures the OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM product.
    DESCRIPTION: The PARMGEN KCIJPUP1 "Update interim libraries and
    create profiles" job typically autodiscovers system variables
    for a number of LPAR profile parameters that use system
    variables like &SYSNAME., &SYSPLEX., &SYSIPHOSTNAME.,
    &SYSVTAMNETID., etc.  In cases where &CNMTCPN. TCP/IP started
    task symbol is not defined, the PARMGEN LPAR profile's
    "KD2_OMPE_TCPIP_NAME" parameter value remains to be a symbolic
    and this does not pass the $PARSE validation step if System
    Variables is not enabled in an RTE (RTE_SYSV_SYSVAR_FLAG=Y).
    WORKAROUND/TIP: : Apply the resolving 1Q13A HKCI310 PTF UA67787
    (APAR OA40649) when available.  For the timebeing, modify the
    WCONFIG(%RTE_NAME%) LPAR profile to change the
    KD2_OMPE_TCPIP_NAME parameter value from "&CNMTCPNM." to the
    actual TCP/IP started task name (for example, "TCPIP").  Then
    proceed rerunning the KCIJPVAL job or the $PARSE job.
    ==============================================================
    
    SYMPTOM: Product started tasks are generated with a "/*JOBPARM"
    line in the header if your WCONFIG($JOBCARD) contains a
    "/*JOBPARM" statement.
    DESCRIPTION: The WCONFIG(KCI$SST1) started task header
    automatically imbeds a commented out version of your jobcard
    called WCONFIG(@JOBCARD).  KCIJPUP1 job creates @JOBCARD from
    your WCONFIG($JOBCARD) but only comments out lines that start
    with "//" to replace with "//*" comment lines.  The KCIJPUP1 job
    needs to modify creating WCONFIG(@JOBCARD) by searching for
    lines with "/*" starting on column 1.
    WORKAROUND/TIP: : Apply the resolving 1Q13A HKCI310 PTF UA67787
    (APAR OA40649) when available.  In the interim, edit the
    WCONFIG(KCI$SST1) started task imbed to remove the following
    "%IMBED%=WCONFIG:@JOBCARD" line on line#18 so that when $PARSE
    job imbeds this member in creating the product started tasks, it
    does not include the @JOBCARD that has the "/*" line.

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • 1. Provide PARMGEN Workflow UI improvements for PARMGEN
    Configuration Framework Enhancement/Updates:
    - (Part 2) Implement KOBSUPDT OMEGAMON security
    standardization of where the KppSUPDI command table
    exits can be maintained for user customizations so the
    composite KCIJPSEC security job can take advantage of
    using the common security exit library.  In Phase 2, the
    security exits maintained in the
    RTE_X_SECURITY_EXIT_LIB library will now be
    automatically presented in ISPF EDIT mode, prior to
    PARMGEN's presenting the composite KCIJPSEC security job.
    Benefit: Reduce the post-configuration security steps and
    give customers one place to lock-down the security exits.
    - Provide
    additional global RTE options on the KCIJPCFG panels to
    create a more-tailored, out-of-the box PARMGEN CONFIG
    profiles.  Benefit:  For first-time users, less
    parameters to customize in the profile (added 490
    parameters already tailored).
    - Support a more
    automated PARMGEN RTE CONFIG profile
    refresh mechanism when common and/or global RTE
    configuration values are modified after initial
    deployment.  Benefit: Reduce the profile refresh steps
    from 4 PARMGEN steps to 1 automated job (new KCIJPPRF
    job).
    - In reconfiguring a System Variables-enabled RTE
    (RTE_SYSV_SYSVAR_FLAG=Y) that has local override for
    system symbols (RTE_X_SYSV_OVERRIDE_SYMBOLS=Y), submit the
    WKANSAMU(KCIJVUPV) job automatically when
    re-running the WCONFIG($PARSESV) job.  Benefit: For
    ease of use, variable-named runtime members that could
    symbolics (*_STC started tasks, *_VTAM_NODE, etc.) are now
    created automatically in one job ($PARSESV) as opposed
    to running $PARSESV and running KCIJVUPV job, as this
    enhancement will detect if the local override flag is set
    in order to resolve the symbolics in the variable-named
    runtime members.
    - Enhance
    KCIJPMC1/KCIJPMC2 merge LPAR profile values job to
    automatically use the higher values when
    TMS:Engine TEMS or Agent storage default values
    change.  Benefit: Reduce reconfiguration requirements
    when required storage values change for a TEMS or
    Agent, and automating the KCIJPMCn merge profile
    processing to use the higher value reduces the
    exposure of any TMS:Engine started task to encounter
    storage quiesce startup issues.
    - Enhance KCIJPSYS system set-up job to provide customer the
    option to include Health Check-related steps.
    Benefit: If the Health Check-related members for APF and
    STC will not be used, allowing the option to null out the
    "GBL_DSN_HZSPROC_LOADLIB" parameter generates a
    streamlined KCIJPSYS job without the extra COPYH* steps
    generated that will not be used.
    - Enhance
    the library-specific $PARSE jobs ($PARSEPR IK*->WK*
    PAR*/PRF*-related "Create runtime members" job /
    $PARSESM IK*->WK* SAM-related "Create runtime members"
    job) to remove IEBUPDTE steps when RTE is not enabled for
    System Variables.  Benefit: File-tailoring the $PARSEPR
    and $PARSESM jobs to not include the
    IEBUPDTE-related steps of variable-named runtime
    members that could point to symbolic values, avoids
    generating a RC=4 when the job is submitted for a
    System Variables-enabled RTE.
    - Provide a new KCIJPB2R/KCIJVB2R (if System Variables is
    enabled) fallback IEBCOPY job that copies the
    %RTE_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.RK*.%CLONE% backup RK*
    production user libraries (RKANCMDU, RKANPARU,
    RKANSAMU, RKD2PAR, RKD2PRF and RKD2SAM %CLONE% copies) back
    into the product execution user libraries (RK*). Benefit:
    If the backup libraries RK* user libraries need to be
    restored back to the versions prior to running the
    KCIJPW2R WK*-->RK* user libraries deployment job,
    you have a readily available job to do the restore.
    - Provide SMS support for
    KCIJPIVP job's
    %RTE_PLIB_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.WSUPERC sequential SUPERC
    dataset allocation based on RTE_SMS_* parameter values
    specified by customer in the WCONFIG LPAR profile,
    instead of inheriting the SMS values for the
    %RTE_PLIB_HILEV%.%RTE_NAME%.WCONFIG library.  Benefit: If
    SMS site values change, KCIJPIVP processing will always
    use the latest specified values in the event that volume
    requirements have changed since WCONFIG library was
    initially allocated.
    - Present the
    WCONFIG($IVPRPT) automatically upon selection of the
    "10S" KCIJPIVP job step status on the "SUBMIT BATCH JOBS TO
    COMPLETE PARMGEN SETUP" KCIP@SUB panel.  Benefit: For ease
    of use, one has easier access to viewing the output of
    the KCIJPIVP configuration IVP job.
    
    2. Provide PARMGEN Workflow UI improvements for
    PARMGEN Application Configuration Enhancements/Updates:
    - Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server (TEMS):
    * Support a benign, placeholder UKANDATV DDNAME in the TEMS
    started task (KDS_TEMS_STC = CANSDSST by default)
    for any future TEMS and Agent function exploitation.
    Benefit: Generating the started task
    with a benign UKANDATV DDNAME as preparation for any
    future functions, avoids having to recycle the TEMS to
    add a will-be required DDNAME.
    - OMEGAMON Enhanced 3270UI:
    * Support a
    benign, placeholder UKANDATV DDNAME in the Tivoli
    OMEGAMON Manager (TOM) started task
    (KOB_TOM_STC = CANSTOM by default) for future Agent
    function exploitation.  Benefit: Generating the
    started task with a benign UKANDATV DDNAME as
    preparation for any future functions, avoids having to
    recycle the TOM to add a will-be required DDNAME.
    - All standalone agents:
    * Support a benign, placeholder UKANDATV DDNAME in all
    Agent started tasks (Kpp_AGT_STC = CANSpp by
    default) for any future Agent function exploitation.
    Benefit: Generating the started task with a benign
    UKANDATV DDNAME as preparation for any future
    functions, avoids having to recycle the Agent to add a
    will-be required DDNAME.
    - OMEGAMON XE for Mainframe Networks V4.2.0 and higher
    versions:
    * Provide support for generating the SYSTCPD DDNAME as an
    optional DD in the N3 Agent started task
    (KN3_AGT_STC = CANSN3 by default).  Benefit: If the
    CANSN3 Agent does not require the SYSTCPD DD for
    connection, one may null out (clear out) the
    "GBL_DSN_TCP_SYSTCPD_TCPDATA_MFN" parameter in the
    WCONFIG($GBL$USR) so the PARMGEN $PARSE or $PARSESV
    "Create runtime members and deployment jobs" job
    creates the WKANSAMU(CANSN3) proc already tailored
    instead of updating the STC manually outside PARMGEN or
    ICAT controls.  In ICAT, the SYSTCPD DD is not
    optional.
    - OMEGAMON XE for Messaging V7.0.0 and higher versions:
    * Increase the  KMQ_AGT_STORAGE_MINIMUM_EXTEND
    configuration default to 300000 instead of 256000, in
    support of Self Describing Agent (SDA)
    functionality and other Agent new functions.  This
    parameter is used in the OMEGAMON XE for Messaging's
    KMQ Agent's xKANPARU(KMQSYSIN)
    MINIMUM(%KMQ_AGT_STORAGE_MINIMUM_EXTEND%,X)
    parameter.  Existing PARMGEN RTE profile value for
    this parameter is preserved so if you want to start
    using the new configuration default, modify the
    WCONFIG LPAR profile parameter prior to rerunning the
    $PARSE or $PARSESV job.
    - OMEGAMON XE for DB2 PE/PM V5.1.1:
    * Support new IBM InfoSphere Optim Performance
    Manager-related LPAR profile parameters as follows:
    SPMON=%KD2_PFnn_READA_SPMON%,
    RACOPSIZE=%KD2_PFnn_READA_OPBUFSIZE% and
    RACOPTHRSHLD=%KD2_PFnn_READA_OPBUFTHR% (SPMON=N,
    RACOPSIZE=16, and RACOPTHRSHLD=6 default) in the
    xKD2PAR(OMPE&dbid) runtime member. For more
