This illustrates why it is important to quiesce the system for a few minutes
during the synchronization phase of a SWA process... If all application
activity is stopped for a short time at the beginning of a SWA save, all
these kinds of issues disappear.

With all due respect, the pending commit does have to do with the file that
is being journaled.  This is a SWA limitation, and it involves a specific
application design, and providing sufficient time in the SAVACTWAIT
parameter to let the commit cycle to complete.

Hi Mark,

I don't know if this helps but we discovered that the file with pending
changes need not be one of the files being saved.

It seems that the OS/400 save object commands, when using
save-while-active,
can be held up by any file that is locked by a commitment control cycle,
when
that file is using the same journal as the objects being saved.  The
pending
commitment control cycle does not have to directly involve one of the
objects
being saved.
