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.
