Much thanks for your response Tony. I have to admit to being a bit disheartened. We have been having problems with response time with the TSS db in the CF .. but support never even suggested looking at the TIMELOCK or changing it.
What we have noticed is that the system that is not local to the CF (if you are using internal CFs) converts about 2/3 of the messages to asynch .. .. but the system that is local to the CF does 100% synch. Curiously enough the system that converts to asynch performs much better than the TSS that is located on the system that has a local CF. |-----| |-----| | | | | |sys1 | |sys2 | |-----| |-----| | cf | | | |-----| |-----| In this drawing, sys2's TSS performs better than the one on sys1 due to IBM's synch-to-asynch conversion that happens. I am in the process of separating the databases to produce better responding systems.. since there was no offered way to steady the performance. I will take the suggestion of the TIMELOCK and work with it. -Rob <snip> This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
