Please increase FPBUF,FPBOF and CNBA limits

Please increase FPBUF,FPBOF and CNBA limits for IIDR for IMS replication.
The customer met CECI0021E Status code:FR on APPLY server.
The BMP application specified NBA=3000,OBA=4000 on the source IMS server.
The DFSPZPxx set FPBUF=200,FPBOF=999, and CNBAOVERRIDE=32500 on the target IMS server.
So it is quite reasonable that the replication stopped because the number of buffer used for replication APPLY was not enough.
The customer claims 'IIDR should be able to apply changes that could do on the source IMS.'.
