Performance system values: Move interactive jobs to base pool at end of time slice
The Move interactive jobs to base pool at end of time slice system value is also known as QTSEPOOL. You can use this system value to specify whether to move interactive jobs to the base pool at the end of the time slice.
| Quick reference | |
|---|---|
| Location | From IBM® Navigator for i, select . Right-click on Performance and click Properties, then select the Memory Pools tab. |
| Special authority | None. |
| Default value | Deselected. Do not move interactive jobs to base pool at end of time slice. |
| Changes take effect | When the next job is started. Active jobs are not changed. |
| Lockable | No. |
What can I do with this system value?
You can specify whether to move interactive jobs to another memory pool when they reach the end of the time slice. When you use this option, a job is moved back to the pool where it was originally running when a long wait occurs. This can help minimize the effect on the interactive response time of other interactive jobs when one interactive job is performing a long-running function.
In the character-based interface, this system value has the following values:
- *NONE
- Jobs are not moved to the base storage pool when time-slice end is reached.
- *BASE
- Jobs are moved to the base pool when time-slice end is reached.
