RE: CODING that locks backup

It is the network neighborhood support that is hanging. PTF's will fix it.

Thank,

This is all we got from the job log.  I glad someone works at a company that
think backup is important.  We have the "As long as I don't have to do it,
but when I have to do it we need it fixed" method.


I tried to get to the website, but I guess I am blocked.

Dwayne,

Did you copy this off of the job's call stack?  If you did, can you include
the entire call stack and post it here?

At the first glance I'd say it may be related to IFS processing somehow.  I
remember seeing some errors with FSNewConversation relating to IFS (perhaps
home-built NetServer exit point program?).

I found an APAR mentioning FSNewConversation but am not sure if it directly
relates to what you are seeing:

BTW, three months to find the lock culprit seems excessive (unless I
misunderstood the timing, then I apologize for this comment).

Company I work for, Centerfield Technology, has a lock/DETECTOR tool that
could have helped you track the culprit much sooner.

HTH, Elvis.

Subject: CODING that locks backup

Hello All,

About three month ago I put a backup monitoring program in place.  This was
great because every night the backup would get locked and by the time we
found out it was to late to run the nightly cycle.  To make a long story
short we still have locks and we finally found out what was doing it.

There's a program running on the system that has some code we don't
understand.  Can anyone help us out before we end the jobs.

The code is :

send_query_w_res_send__FP9MX_work_sPci

FSNewConversation__FP9FS_ReqRep



Thanks
