They are two different things.
The MaxActiveChannels limits the maximum number of active channels running at one time.... (of course )...
The "listener backlog" parameter:
Quote:
ListenerBacklog=number
Override the default number of outstanding requests for the TCP/IP listener.
When receiving on TCP/IP, a maximum number of outstanding connection requests is set. This can be considered to be a backlog of requests waiting on the TCP/IP port for the listener to accept the request. The default listener backlog values are shown in Table 5.
This limits how many "requests" to get a channel going (think rcvr and svrconn) and be queued. Its not related to how many are actually running. So if suddendly, you have 1000's of mq clients trying to start a channel at once, you might bump into this restriction.
If the requests come in slowing enough that no backlog is built-up, then eventually MAXACTIVECHANNELs would restrict you. _________________ -wayne
