Why did you pick 10 Meg as the new max value? Was that arbitrary, or
does it derive from some other fundamental limit?
In the DDM manual that I have (version 3 volume 3, which I think is
from 2004) the max value for QRYBLKSZ is listed as "MAXVAL 10,485,760
(10M)". Also, in the DRDA manual for the same year, under the heading
"Simplified Query Processing Rules", there's the following quote:
"Blocking applies only to the QRYDTA reply objects. Each query block
is a QRYDTA DSS. The maximum query block size value allowed in the
qryblksz parameter is increased from 32K to 10M, thus accommodating
the larger data volumes required by modern, more data-intensive
applications."
I'm not sure if these are the most recent versions of the manuals, but
I think this is probably where the 10M limit comes from...
Thanks Bryan and Army for looking at this.
Yes, the 10M was picked because it is the maximum query block size
allowed per the spec. The Version 3 specs are the latest specs after
looking at the development history of the spec on the opengroup site.
https://www.opengroup.org/projects/drda/uploads/40/9359/history.htm and
they are from 2004. http://www.opengroup.org/bookstore/catalog/c043.htm
this is the link that I can get to to download the specs and it has
version 3.
I'll also update the notes on the jira.
Thanks,
Sunitha.
