Question?? does anyone know if the case in the stanza in the qm.ini makes a differance??
I have KeepAlive=Yes Manual indicated ALL UPPERCASE DID NOT SAY ALL UPPER REQUIRED.
Anyone know for sure if case matters??  |

I'm pretty sure case doesn't matter. Everything by default is camelback.
I added these lines:
CHANNELS:
MaxChannels=1000
MaxActiveChannels=1000
and works fine. |

When a tcp channel is inactive, no data flows over the socket connection.
Keepalive allows both ends of the connection to know that the other is still there, the keepalive interval used to be a global parameter for the operatibg system, but I think in v6 you can set it per channel.
If the keepalive interval expires, then both sides ping each other, if one side has gone down and the socket is closed, then the channel will shutdown.
Turning it on can make your channels more tolerant of lossy networks (not usually a problem these days), but causes extra traffic. |

Case does not matter for channels type attributes.
The manual says that the default for KeepAlive is YES, but it is actually NO. See doc APAR IY69688.

I opened an ETR with IBM and they indicated CASE DOES MATTER.
CORRECT setting is KeepAlive=YES to turn it on Yes will not work |

Whoever answered your ETR is doubly wrong.
1. The attribute can be in either UPPER or lower case, Y or y
2. Only the first letter is used to check, so YES and Yes are equivalent. |

| Are you speaking from code knowledge?? or testing results? I do not want to make a change if not required. I was very surprized when I received teh answere. What you say sounds like what I expected. |

imho, unless it is documented that case does not matter, (and I haven't seen that) I would go exactly with what is published in the manuals.
