RDCSIZE - Size of Buffer for the Natural Data Collector

This Natural profile parameter specifies the buffer size for the Natural Data Collector which is used by the SYSRDC utility. In addition, it controls the trace recording function of the data collector.

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.

Possible settings 2 - 128

Buffer size in KB.

To activate the data collector (without trace recording), you specify RDCSIZE=2. To also activate the trace recording, you have to set RDCSIZE to a setting greater than 2. If the requested space is not available, the Natural Data Collector cannot be used.

0 Deactivates the data collector.
