Chapter 11 Configuring PSF for MVS to Print IPDS Files For information about the TCP/IP profile and the statements described in this section, refer to: • IBM TCP/IP MVS Customization and Administration Guide • IBM TCP/IP Performance and Tuning Guide DATABUFFERPOOLSIZE The DATABUFFERPOOLSIZE statement defines the number and size of the data buffers. For printing on TCP/IP-attached printers, IBM recommends that you specify at least 160 data buffers, 32768 buffer size. SMALLDATABUFFERPOOLSIZE The SMALLDATABUFFERPOOLSIZE statement defines the number of small data buffers. For printing on TCP/IP-attached printers, IBM recommends that you specify at least 256 small data buffers. TINYDATABUFFERPOOLSIZE The TINYDATABUFFERPOOLSIZE statement defines the number of tiny data buffers. For printing on TCP/IP-attached printers, IBM recommends that you specify at least 256 tiny data buffers. KEEPALIVEOPTIONS PSF relies on TCP to detect when a connection with a TCP/IPattached printer is no longer usable. When no data has been exchanged between PSF/MVS and its connection partner, TCP sends keep-alive probes to the connection partner periodically. These periodic probes, called keep-alive transmissions, enable TCP to discover when a connection is no longer usable even if the connection partner is abruptly powered off or is no longer accessible through the network. The frequency of keep-alive transmissions is controlled by the INTERVAL parameter on the KEEPALIVEOPTIONS statement. The frequency applies to all TCP applications that direct TCP to send keep-alive transmissions. The default frequency is after about two hours of inactivity. 230
