The new special register CURRENT LOCK TIMEOUT is very useful. It gives you the ability to allow one application to set a different value from the system-wide setting of IRLMRWT. But don't forget about zparm SPREG_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MAX. An application could set CURRENT LOCK TIMEOUT to the max value of 32,767 seconds. That's a long time. SPREG_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MAX allows you to control how high an application can set that special register. However, the default value of SPREG_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MAX is -1, which falls back to the value in CURRENT LOCK TIMEOUT.
