Parameters
Keyword Description Choices Notes
AUTOSTART Autostart servers *YES, *NO, *SAME Optional,
Positional 1
NBRSVR Number of initial servers 1-20, *SAME, *DFT Optional
Autostart servers (AUTOSTART)
Specifies whether to start automatically the LPD servers when TCP/IP is started by running the Start
TCP/IP (STRTCP) command, or the Start TCP/IP Server (STRTCPSVR) command with
SERVER(*AUTOSTART) specified. When LPD is started by running the STRTCPSVR command, and
SERVER(*AUTOSTART) is not specified, this parameter is ignored and the number of initial servers
defined is started regardless of the value of this parameter.
*SAME
The autostart value that was previously set does not change.
*YES Start the number of servers defined in the NBRSVR parameter.
*NO Do not start the number of servers defined in the NBRSVR parameter when the STRTCP
command is called.
Number of initial servers (NBRSVR)
Specifies the number of LPD servers to start initially when LPD is started by either the STRTCP
command or the STRTCPSVR command. The initial number of servers is 2.
The STRTCP command starts all the servers specified in the CHGLPDA command. The STRTCPSVR
command starts only one LPD server, regardless of the number of the servers currently running.
