RE: QDSCJOBITV System Value

["Robert Ostrowski" <Bob.Ostrowski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Our system value for QINACTITV (Inactive Job Time-out) is set to *NONE.
QINACTMSGQ is set to *ENDJOB.

The way I see it, with these settings, if a job is inactive (for no
matter how long) no action is taken.
So the job just sits there with the DSC status in WRKACTJOB.  So,
setting the time in QDSCJOBITV to 5
minutes would end these jobs like I want.  If the user comes back to
their desk 5 hours later, that 
should stop my "I can't sign on" phone calls due to their shutting down
the PC without signing off of
the system.

Well, the minimum is 5 minutes.  And if you make it 5 minutes, you will
have
a lot of PO'ed users.

Mine complain with the default of 4 hours.  Not kidding.

Let me get this straight.  You haven't touched the keyboard in 4 hours
and
yet you're PO'ed for being disconnected.
