Hello Kevin, it cannot be changed because it is only internally used for calculting parameters. It is used to calculate _MAXTRANS which is used to allocate space in the lock structures to hold a list of transactions which are not only read only. The default value of 3 is always overwritten by the sum of MAXUSERTASKS+MAXSERVERTASKS+1(UTILITYTASK)+1(RESERVE). For the case that the other parameters are incorrectly set it is set to a minimum with which it at least should be possible to restart the kernel.
The changable value for you is MAXUSERTASKS and its default is 50. Kind Regards, Uwe > -----Original Message----- > From: Kevin Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Donnerstag, 25.
