Why are you phantoming what is basically already a phantom (cron)? If you just run the program directly from cron instead of phantoming it then there will be no entry in the &PH& file.

Subject: [U2] Cron job creates many &PH& entries


Universe 10.1.4, pick flavor, Red Hat

I have a UV phantom cron job that runs every minute. It checks a
directory for any inbound files, processes them, then writes them to an
outbound directory. My problem is that the &PH& directory is filling up
with DUPCHECK_time_date files (1440 per day). Anyone know how to turn
off this feature?

Here is the cron job:

#!/bin/sh
TERM=ansi ; export TERM
cd /usr/yyy/XXX
/usr/ibm/uv/bin/uv "PHANTOM DUPCHECK"

DUPCHECK is a cataloged basic program in the XXX account.

Thanks,
