Re: CPI0999

In my experience, once you pass the threshhold, SNADS will no longer send or
receive stuff, and MSF (Mail Services Framework) will no longer send email.
The annoying thing is, both of them appear to be working -- "distribution
sent to 1 users, not sent to 0 users" -- but it goes nowhere.  Although as I
recall, it does get queued up (WRKDSTQ) and when you get below the
threshhold it sends it.

AFAIK, the message will reappear every hour until the next IPL no matter
what you do. And I'm not sure that deleting documents and folders will help
that much either (though it might).

I believe this has something to do with work management in a running system
maybe more than how many objects you have, and that may be why an IPL resets
it.

So far, it seems that others have managed to essentially ignore it for a
while when it hits. I saw it once a number of years ago and sufferred no ill
effects. But it also obviously indicates that you at least came close to
trouble at some point. Whether the cause has been eliminated simply because
some jobs have ended, I imagine only IBM would know.

There's an APAR that goes back to V2R3 that mentions this, but very little
else. Not much public info at all.
