Increased thread limit in the kernel with the KERNELSTACKS(ABOVE) parmlib option

Description: Previously, the limit of the number of threads that could be run in the kernel was approximately 32,000. In V2R2, the limit is higher, depending on services that are used and the additional storage that those services require. The D OMVS,ST system command option displays the maximum number of threads that can be created and run in the kernel.

When change was introduced: z/OS® V2R2.
