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.
