Workload-length is a four-byte field: when the Variable-length-request option is “N” it contains the number of bytes addressed by the Workload-pointer field; when the Variable-length-request option is 'Y', Workload-length is ignored.

Use of Workload requires a Connect-type setting of “C”.

Workload-length exists only when DBCHINI had been called for a DBCAREA with Total-length set to at least 640 (that is, the returned DBCAREA Level value is at least 1). For a smaller DBCAREA, Workload-length is ignored.

2,147,483,602 H, and the Teradata Database supports ExtendedRespond, as indicated by the DBCHQE Extended-response-support query.

The actual maximum may vary slightly with the version of the Teradata Database being used; the value may be obtained using the DBCHQE CLIv2-limits query.
