Why don't you pre-recall files with OpenTech's Hrecall product? It will cut a lot of job waits for you.

Which is a design flaw in my opinion. What should be done is to issue a TTIMER (I think this is the correct Macro) for 5 Minutes with an ECB Parm that gets POST'ed when the time interval is over. You then do a WAIT 1,LIST=(...) [or an EVENTS] on both that ECB and the one for the HRECALL. If the TTIMER pops then reissue it and wait again. This will cause the tasks to never wait for more than 5 minutes thus avoiding the S522. > >HTH > >Peter ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html __________ NOD32 3280 (20080718) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
