Tcpnodelay

Authorized User

Note:
This option is for AIX and AIX 5L clients only. All other UNIX clients buffer small transactions before sending them to the server.

The tcpnodelay specifies whether to send small transactions to the server, without buffering them first. A small transaction is smaller than the byte limit set with the txnbytelimit option. Specifying tcpnodelay yes might improve performance in higher-speed networks.

Supported Clients

This option is valid for AIX and AIX 5L clients.

Options File

Place this option in the client system options file dsm.sys.

Syntax

               .-No--.
>>-TCPNodelay--+-----+-----------------------------------------><
               '-Yes-'
 
 

Parameters

No
Do not send small transactions without buffering them first. This is the default.

Yes
Send small transactions without buffering them first. When you specify tcpnodelay yes, data packets less than the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size are sent immediately. Specifying tcpnodelay yes might improve performance in higher-speed networks.
