Dynamic specification yes This parameter can only be specified dynamically.

Notes:

  1. This parameter can only be specified dynamically. It corresponds to the NAME specification of the BPI profile parameter or the NTBPI macro respectively.
  2. Internally, the BPNAME specification is converted into an equivalent BPI specification; for example: BPNAME=GBP1 is converted into: BPI=(TYPE=NAT,SEQ=0,NAME=GBP1).
  3. The BPNAME profile parameter only applies to the primary Natural global buffer pool (TYPE=NAT, SEQ=0).If there is a primary buffer pool with SEQ=0 in the Natural parameter module, only the NAME setting of this buffer pool is updated.
  4. For general information, see Natural Global Buffer Pool in the Operations documentation.
