==Description==
The ACTRDS system parameter is a numeric parameter that indicates the number of
special-purpose public-key/private-key encryption/decryption subtasks to be used.
Since public-key/private-key encryption/decryption is extremely CPU intensive,
it can be useful to have the encryption/decryption performed in a special-purpose
subtask, freeing the main [[Model 204]] task for other work.
This parameter can be reset by a system manager but will not cause more than
[[MAXRDS parameter|MAXRDS]] tasks to be used at any time.
Since CMS does not support true multi-tasking, this parameter has no effect under
CMS.
Also, since public-key/private-key encryption is only used by [[Janus Network Security]], this parameter
has no effect at sites not authorized for ''Janus Network Security''.

Setting this parameter is especially useful at sites where:
<ul>
<li>The Online is CPU constrained in the main task.
<li>There are usually or often idle CPUs available.
<li>The MP/204 feature is not available to move main task work to
idle CPUs.
</ul>

In an MP/204 environment, it is probably not worth setting ACTRDS as it would probably
make more sense to add an additional MP/204 subtask to the Online by increasing the value
of the AMPSUBS system parameter.
In a non-MP/204 environment, it probably does not make much sense (though is also largely
harmless) to set an ACTRDS value greater than 1.

The ACTRDS system parameter is a numeric parameter that indicates the number of
special-purpose public-key/private-key encryption/decryption subtasks to be used.
Since public-key/private-key encryption/decryption is extremely CPU intensive,
it can be useful to have the encryption/decryption performed in a special-purpose
subtask, freeing the main [[Model 204]] task for other work.
This parameter can be reset by a system manager but will not cause more than
[[MAXRDS parameter|MAXRDS]] tasks to be used at any time.
Since CMS does not support true multi-tasking, this parameter has no effect under
CMS.
Also, since public-key/private-key encryption is only used by ''Janus Network Security'', this parameter
has no effect at sites not authorized for ''Janus Network Security''.

Setting this parameter is especially useful at sites where:
<ul>
<li>The Online is CPU constrained in the main task.
<li>There are usually or often idle CPUs available.
<li>The MP/204 feature is not available to move main task work to
idle CPUs.
</ul>

In an MP/204 environment, it is probably not worth setting ACTRDS as it would probably
make more sense to add an additional MP/204 subtask to the Online by increasing the value
of the AMPSUBS system parameter.
In a non-MP/204 environment, it probably does not make much sense (though is also largely
harmless) to set an ACTRDS value greater than 1.
