Maximum queue depth (MAXDEPTH)

Specifies the maximum number of messages allowed on the queue. However, other factors can cause the queue to be treated as full; for example, it appears to be full if there is no storage available for a message.

Note: If this value is subsequently reduced by using the CHGMQMQ command, any messages that are on the queue remain intact even if they cause the new maximum to be exceeded.

The possible values are:

*SAME

The attribute is unchanged.
