RE: savlib and evtw

I've found that EVTW will also be the case as it writes data to a
savefile.  If you're saving LARGE amounts, just do a DSPLIB on the lib
your savf object is in and see if it's getting larger.  Usually you'll
only see RUN status right at the very end.

My experience - YMMV.  V5R1 and + is what I can vouch for with
certainty.  As long as it's not in LCKW - that's troublesome.

That is the same situation we are having except we are v5r2.   
We are upgrading to v5r3 tonight.
Is there any way to see what event the job is waiting for??

We get it and we aren't doing a SWA, all users are off the applications
and the related subsystems are down. We are  on V5R3.
