CSDSTRNO

The CSDSTRNO system initialization parameter specifies the number of concurrent requests that can be processed against the CSD.

CSDSTRNO={6|number}
When the number of requests reaches the CSDSTRNO value, CICS automatically queues any additional requests until one of the active requests terminates.

CICS requires two strings per CSD user, and you can increase the CSDSTRNO value, in multiples of two, to allow more than one concurrent CEDA user.

See Multiple users of the CSD within a CICS region (non-RLS) before you code this parameter.

This parameter is effective only on a CICS cold or initial start. On a warm or emergency restart, file resource definitions for the CSD are recovered from the global catalog. However, you can redefine the number of strings for the CSD dynamically with an EXEC CICS SET FILE command.
6
The default number of concurrent requests for the CSD is 6.
number
This number must be a multiple of 2, in the range 2 through 254.
