This Natural profile parameter determines the size of the Software AG Editor auxiliary buffer pool.
It must be used when the Software AG Editor runs in a z/OS Parallel Sysplex environment. It allows the Software AG Editor to be run without a Software AG Editor (local or global) buffer pool.
Alternatively, you can use the equivalent Natural profile parameter
DS or macro
NTDS, see
Using Optional Macros in a Natural Parameter
Module in the Operations
documentation to specify the buffer size.

Editor auxiliary buffer pool size in KB. |

| Default setting | 0 |
No editor auxiliary buffer pool is used. |
| Dynamic specification | yes | |
| Specification within session | no |
No Software AG Editor work file is required for the auxiliary buffer pool.
When the auxiliary buffer pool is used, the Software AG Editor's recovery function is not available.
If EDPSIZE is not zero, an auxiliary buffer pool
is allocated and used although a (local or global) Software AG Editor buffer
pool is defined with the BPI profile parameter or the
NTBPI macro.
For further information on the Software AG Editor, see Operating the Software AG Editor in the Operations documentation.
