Up front, I have to say that I know less than zero about IDMS and I was hoping to keep it that way. We have a rash of batch jobs extracting data from IDMS regions. God only knows what they're doing but these jobs seem to have their dispatching priority increased to FC range where their srvclass should have them in the high C0 to low E0 range. The only enque that appears is 'IDMSCV BATxx' (where xx is some hex characters). I was thinking that it could be ERV trying to elimate enque contention but that doesn't seem to be the case. This enque seems to be an IDMS mechanism to serialize batch usage. Any thoughts?
