RE: QCMDEXC

... but why would this suddenly start to happen to so many different jobs ?

Yesterday was a particularly busy day on the system with Disk-arm util%
through the roof - so I guess that locking waits could be the answer.

It is strange that I have never seen symptoms like this before - on this
particular AS/400, or any others.  Yes, I've seen DLY-nnn's before, but on
monitor or service jobs, not on application jobs.

Perhaps today it will disappear as mysteriously as it appeared ?

Hi all,
        has anyone come across this event and know of a solution ?

I have a number of batch jobs with a status of ACTIVE and the function
DLY-300; 
The programs being executed do not have this coded in them;
The program-stacks of all these jobs have QCMDEXC and QWCDLYJB at the lowest
2 levels; 
They go active at the end of the wait, but then go to DLY-300 again;
There is nothing in the job log;

Kind regards,
Jeff Bull.
