Batch limit (BATCHLIM)

This attribute is the limit, in kilobytes, of the amount of data that can be sent through a channel before taking a sync point.

A sync point is taken after the message that caused the limit to be reached has flowed across the channel.

The value must be in the range 0 - 999999. The default value is 5000.

A value of zero in this attribute means that no data limit is applied to batches over this channel.

The batch is terminated when one of the following conditions is met:

• BATCHSZ messages have been sent.
• BATCHLIM bytes have been sent.
• The transmission queue is empty and BATCHINT is exceeded.

This attribute is valid for channel types of:

• Sender
• Server
• Cluster sender
• Cluster receiver

This parameter is supported on all platforms.
