RE: QINTACTITV & QINACTMSGQ

We have the system send a message to "inactive" message queue with a simple
program that monitors the message queue.  Then a simple file of exception
that allow you to control what action to take for what user id.  Programmer
and VP don't like having their jobs ended.  We also send a message warning
the user of their pending action.  Two warning and out they go.  We use 10
minutes for the system value.  The actions are endjob or dscjob.  1 - 99
warnings.  Very simple to program.  Originally written under 1.2 and still
running unchanged at 4.4. :-)

Subject: QINTACTITV & QINACTMSGQ


We would like to remove inactive users from our system.  These inactive
users can cause our JDE sleeper jobs to hang.  We are investigating setting
the system value QINTACTIV = 180 minutes and QINACTMSGQ = ENDJOB.   Is
anyone ending user jobs with this approach?  Are there any problems with
implementing QINTACTIV and QINACTMSGQ.      Thank you
