Have you considered whether any of the PLO functions would do the trick? More expensive than CDS, but perhaps they would help?

I have a situation where I need to serialize processing and cannot use CDS because the two addresses being updated cannot be next to each other (because I use CDS with these two addresses with other addresses). I have attempted to use a combination of CS instructions to resolve this problem but it does not work. I know this will work if I use a CMS lock but I am concerned about affecting the whole system. Any advice? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
