and may improve retrieval response times.

If this parameter is omitted, a default value of MAXDRDR=4 will be used.

TAPECNTL: MAXTWTR

MAXTWTR = nnn

Requirement: Optional

Default: 4

Validation: nnn = 1-3 digit numeric value in range 1 - 255

Use: The MAXTWTR parameter specifies the number of active tape-writer subtasks which are to created in the DB2 Manager control region.

Notes: Each execution of the DB2 Manager table migration utility will acquire a single tape-writer subtask. The value of the MAXTWTR controls the maximum number of row migration jobs which may execute concurrently.

This setting may be varied during DB2 Manager operation via the 'SET MAXTWTR’ operator command.

If this parameter is omitted, a default value of MAXTWTR=4 will be used.

TAPECNTL: MAXSCHED

MAXSCHED = nnn

Requirement: Optional

Default: 4

Validation: nnn = 1-3 digit numeric value in range 1 - 255

Use: The MAXSCHED parameter specifies the number of active scheduler subtasks which are to created in the DB2 Manager control region.

Notes: A scheduler subtask is responsible for receiving requests from the SQL intercept module, validating them and passing valid requests to the appropriate component within the DB2 Manager control region for further processing.

Increasing the number of scheduler tasks will reduce the average length of time that it takes to assign a row storage or retrieval request to the appropriate subtask. However, each
