Title: RE: [iMS] Problem spooling to \ims\out

Thanks Kym for your response.

We found out what the problem was with the filename format problem,
ie, "20chars_20chars.mail".  Our development machine was not running the
latest POST version (2.1.6).  Once we upgraded it, all of our control files
using the above naming format went through great.

A quick question about the LOCK / UNLOCK feature of the control file.  I've read
in the manual about this issue, and you stated it below.

Now, if we have a mailing of thousands of control files, and we lock them, then
unlock them (once the batch is done creating), that is alot of disk reads/writes.

Do you know of a cfx tag, or some low level code that will modify the 'LOCK' status
of these control files quickly?  I'm assuming the cfx_imsmail tag does this when it
creates the control files.

Hehe, and this brings up another question.  Say we have thousands of control files for
a particular mailing.  All the control files are locked.  Now, we start to unlock
the control files (all the files are located in the Spool directory).  How does
iMS know that there are say 5,000 control files for this mailing so that it wont
delete the .mbx file after the first control file is unlocked?  Does iMS store
the number of control files within its memory?

Thanks for your help!
