Purpose
Conveys the current length of the input (response) buffer.
Usage Notes
The KeepRespond parcel requests as many response parcels as will fit in the specified MaxMsgSize.
If the KeepRespond parcel is used in a start request or continue request and the start response or continue response contains the EndRequest parcel, the spool file is retained on the database.
In general, the spool file is deleted in any of the following situations:
- A Cancel parcel is issued
- The EndRequest parcel is returned in response to a continue request that contained a Resp parcel
- An abort operation occurs
- A logoff operation occurs
This parcel is generated by CLIv2 at the direction of the application.

| Flavor Field | Parcel Body Length | Parcel Body Fields |

| 5 | 2 | MaxMsgSize: 2-byte unsigned integer

The KeepRespond parcel is supported by all versions of Vantage and Teradata Database.
