DEFINE MAXSMSGS command

This might affect Task 12 in Customizing your queue managers.

This command is superseded by the MAXUMSGS queue manager attribute, which defines the maximum number of uncommitted messages which can be put and retrieved within a syncpoint. MAXUMSGS can be set by the WebSphere MQ ALTER QMGR command, and its value is retained across restart. The DEFINE MAXSMSGS command is retained for compatibility; it has the same effect as using ALTER QMGR, and so can no longer be issued from the CSQINP1 initialization input data set. DISPLAY MAXSMSGS is also retained for compatibility; it can no longer be issued from the CSQINP1 initialization data set.

For further information about the ALTER QMGR command, see WebSphere MQ Script (MQSC) Command Reference.
