  • Subject: IFACTIVE OCL glitch ?
  • From: Schmuel <schmuel@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Midrange,

    Running OCL (of course :-) we use the IFACTIVE command in some procedures,
in the S36E environment type of situation..

    Last night, in a program that runs every day and has never been a problem..
the IFACTIVE-'ARINQB'  (A/R Inquiry Program) answered yes to a user, despite
our operations people making triply sure that WRKACTJOB did not show any
thing even remotely close to that running, as well as checking all the 
users in
the shop visually, and I checked the jobs also when I came in to take the
running procedure out of its loop/wait state by cancelling it and jumping 
over..
somewhere in the midst of all of this, the system stopped thinking the job
was running, tho clearly no such job was ended.....  (I was testing)

    Is there any possible known glitch that could hold that information in 
the system
area even tho the job is de facto ended..  (perhaps related to running through
Client Access and an NT server to the workstations) ...

    It was quite strange, a tad disconcerting, not a big problem but 
something I
could use a little idea on ..  Thanks most excellent AS/400 list...
