Consider this, would you feel real comfortable doing a PWRDWNSYS while
running all these processes simultaneously:
- your month end process
- a cost rollup
- a payroll run
- invoice generation
- mass email of customer statements
knowing that everything just gets flushed to cache? I wouldn't.
What Jim is saying is that if your EDI process reads an entry off of the
data queue and it takes 10 minutes to process that entry and during that
10 minutes the system powers down then you've lost that entry and part of
the data from that posting job. Unless you have some awesome restart
procedures. Not the most likely scenario in the world but one still
shouldn't PWRDWNSYS without shutting down currently running processes in
some orderly fashion. No, ENDSBS *ALL *CNTRLD DELAY(120) doesn't count
unless you know for a fact that all your processes check for system
shutdown (like RPGs %SHTDN bif)
