Request to adjust the behaviour of IPCONN autoinstall program (DFHISAIP)

Customer did some tests with the IPCONN autoinstall program (DFHISAIP). He noted that the "receivecount" of the autoinstalled IPCONN had the same value of the "sendcount" from the "partner" IPCONN, but the "sendcount" has assumed the default value "1", i.e., it did not use the value of "receivecount" from the "partner" IPCONN. Customer knows that he can use a template to define the number of "receivecount" and "sendcount", but it's not useful to him because the number of sessions between the CICS regions is very heterogeneous, these values vary according to the CICS regions. As a template is not defined and it is not possible to interfere in this parameter via DFHISAIP, the autoinstall assigns a default value "1" to "sendcount", which prevents the use of this facility. Customer suggests that the "sendcount" of the autoinstalled IPCONN uses the value of the "receivecount" from the IPCONN "partner" as the "receivecount" uses the value of "sendcount" set in the IPCONN "partner."

    This RFE is satisfied by CICS TS 5.3 which is generally available from December 11th 2015.

    The SENDCOUNT attribute on the autoinstalled IPCONN resource is set to the same value as RECEIVECOUNT, or the SENDCOUNT value from the template, if a template is specified.
