adxmso is used to know the maximum number of sequential files opened simultaneously and to modify this parameter.

# Initialization of adxmso to its maximum value
[S]adxmso = 16

Description

adxmso is an Integer type system variable used to know the number of files that do not correspond to tables and that can be opened at the same time.  Its value can be modified when it is assigned.
adxmso is initialized by the parameter entered when validating the folder.
The software uses:
·                   a file for the message file.
·                   a file for the application message file.
·                   is  a file for Openi, Openo and Openio commands.
·                   a file by 'text' file used on printing.
·                   a file when setting up an object.
·                   The software also uses 2 additional files on launching a print. These two files can be reused immediately afterwards.
The situation where the most 'sequential files' are consumed is in the event of a printing with 'text' file that would at the same time perform reads in a sequential file and writes in another sequential file ( a 'log file' for instance). 
If, as it is often the case, an application message file is used, a total of 5 is reached.
adxmso can only have values ranging from 0 and 64. The default value of 5 is usually accepted.
The three channels used as standard (keyboard, screen and error output) should not be counted in adxmso.
The software uses other channels to manage the tables. Refer to the documentation on the adxmto variable for further details on the limits that can be thus generated.
If adxmso should be given a value different from the default, this operation must be performed in one of the 'APL.ini' name processes that are launched when starting the application, otherwise it will not be taken into account.
