While the client programs are changed on some machines to specify the MQOO_READ_AHEAD option, some other machines have to run the existing client application code without that option for a certain period of time.
What must the system administrator configure to support the coexistence of the two different versions of the client application?
A. SHARECNV(0) on the SVRCONN channel and DEFREADA(YES) for the queues
B. SHARECNV(>0) on the SVRCONN channel and DEFREADA(NO) for the queues
C. SHARECNV(>0) on the SVRCONN channel and DEFREADA(YES) for the queues
D. SHARECNV(>1) on the SVRCONN channel and DEFREADA(ENABLED) for the queues
