Recursive Triggers and ILE/RPG

[peteh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Pete Hall)]

>>  and I am looking
at 30 to 40,000 base updates each night, resulting in the creation and
destruction of 150 to 200,000 activation groups in this job. Now, on a
530 this is not the end of the world, but I would like a better
solution. Any ideas? <<

Walden,

Maybe you could leave the triggers activated - use RETURN with *INLR
*OFF, and just do a RCLACTGRP *ELIGIBLE at the end of the job. I'd state
that this would work with confidence if it was a normal CALL, but in
this case, I'd try it in a controlled manner, as I'm not 100% certain
that each subsequent level will always end up using the same invocation,
so this could conceivably end up creating a new invocation anyway, and
then leaving it there as a permanent orphan. How could you test this
(without crashing the system of course)? Monitoring non-database faults?
Maybe someone else has an idea, or better yet, maybe someone can confirm
that this is not a problem, or has another solution entirely, or ...

Pete
