I would have never found that. Thanks! If it still happens after the cume
(I'll assume it will at this point), I'll have the admin install that PTF.

This is a 520 P5 system running 6.1. The RPG program uses SK's CSV
parser ( http://systeminetwork.com/article/how-read-csv-file-rpg ).
The only thing I know about with problems on the system is that the
admin is having problems getting the latest cume installed (working
with IBM on it) so we have the base 6.1 running right now. He thinks
he can get that installed finally this weekend. There was mentions in
the log of not finding some copybooks, but I have never seen that
hold up a compile, but I fixed those and tried again.

This isn't a one-time thing. It happens every time. The compile job
uses about 70% CPU so it seems to be doing something (can't imagine
what).

Has anyone seen this before? I'll be trying now after the cume is
installed to see if that is it.


Known defects for ILE RPG compiler looping problems should be
included in a Google web search on the following:
APAR "loop" rpgle "cmpl" "6.1" site:ibm.com

One looping case is described by APAR SE45627 providing PTF R610
SI43988 which is not yet on a cumulative:

http://www-912.ibm.com/n_dir/nas4apar.NSF/c79815e083182fec862564c00079d117/a8be106177f11d20862577d0003c8a05?OpenDocument

Consider submitting the job HOLD(*YES), issuing STRSRVJOB on that
job, then a minute or so after RLSJOB issue DMPJOBINT, then again after
the job seems to level at the ~70% CPU utilization. A record of the LIC
and compiler stack will be logged in each VLog produced by issuing that
command against the serviced job. That information could be used to
further narrow a search, or just left for comparison if the problem
appears to remain after maintenance is eventually applied.
