MAXFAILS keyword

Use the MAXFAILS keyword to specify the maximum allowable number of UOWs that fail to be reorganized in an area, before the utility ends abnormally.

If the number of failures has exceeded the number specified in the MAXFAILS keyword, the reorganization processing is stopped and message HFPT0008E will be issued.

If MAXFAILS is specified as 0, then no limit is set and the reorganization continues the attempt to reorganize the next UOW until all UOW in the area has been processed or the reorganization limit, if it is specified, is reached.

MAXFAILS is an optional keyword for the REORG command.
