<h1 class="topictitle1">Set number of available File Transfer Protocol servers</h1>
<div><p>You can specify the minimum number of available servers to be kept
ready for future client connections.</p>
<p>To set this value, go to the <span class="uicontrol">FTP Properties</span> page
and specify a number from 1 to 20 for the <span class="uicontrol">Initial number of servers
to start</span>. Specifying a value of 1 delays incoming connections
to the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server. The recommended value is 3.</p>
<p>When a client connects to an iSeries™ FTP server, the server examines
the number of active servers that are not connected to a client and the value
specified for the initial number of servers to start. If the initial server
value is greater than the number of available servers, additional servers
are started so that the two numbers are equal. If the initial server value
is less than the number of available servers, no action is taken. Changes
to the initial server value take effect at the time of the next client connection,
when the above process is activated.</p>
<p>For example, if there are five FTP client sessions established at the same
time and the initial server value is set at 10, there will be 15 FTP servers
running. The 15 servers include five servers for the five active client sessions
and ten available servers. The number of available servers can be larger than
the initial server value. In this same example, if the five clients end their
sessions and no other sessions are started, there will be 15 available servers. </p>
