RE: Network File recovery

Thanks.  I did not know this and I think the correlation ID will be useful
the next time I have a SNADS issue.

As far as I know you cannot view a distribution that is being sent but you
can determine what is being sent.  (I have a single AS/400 so I set up a
SNA/DS environment to send to myself just to test this because it has been
at least 7 years since I last did anything with SNA/DS.  I must be in a
good mood!)

WRKDSTQ shows you the available queues:
                        Queue      -----Send Time------  -Queue Depth-
 Opt  Queue Name        Priority   From     To    Force  Send  Current
Status
      LOOP              Normal       :   -   :      :       1      2
Held
      LOOP              High         :   -   :      :       1      0
Held
      QSMTPQ            Normal       :   -   :      :       1      0
Rty-Fail
      QSMTPQ            High         :   -   :      :       1      0
Rty-Fail

Option 5 shows you the queue entries:
      ---Originating----                      Sequence              Size
Pct
 Opt  User ID   Address   Date      Time       Number   Status       KB
Sent
      QSECOFR   QSECOFR   31/07/02  18:12:44    0004    Ready           5
0
      QSECOFR   QSECOFR   31/07/02  18:15:39    0005    Ready           7
0

Note the Sequence Number of the entry you have problems with.  Let's pick
entry 0005

DSPDSTLOG shows you the SNA/DS journal entries:
    Function  Entry  ------Logged------               ----Originator----
Seq
Opt   Type    Type   Date      Time      Job Name     User ID   Address
Nbr
     *ORG    *NRM   31/07/02  18:12:48  QPADEV0003   QSECOFR   QSECOFR
0004
     *RTR    *NRM   31/07/02  18:12:49  QMSF         QSECOFR   QSECOFR
0004
     *ORG    *NRM   31/07/02  18:15:39  QPADEV0003   QSECOFR   QSECOFR
0005
     *RTR    *NRM   31/07/02  18:15:40  QMSF         QSECOFR   QSECOFR
0005

Locate the entry with the sequence number you noted in the previous step.
Option 5 shows you the details.  Press F14 to display the correlation IDs.
You will see something like:

 Origin:
   Correlation ID  . . . . :    FSUTIL_AS400ADJTIMEC   *   ;
   Hexadecimal . . . . . . :
02C6E2E4E3C9D36DC1E2F4F0F0C1C4D1E3C9D4C5C340

40005C0000005E000000000000000000000000000000
 Prefix:
   Correlation ID  . . . . :
   Hexadecimal . . . . . . :   00000000000000000000000000000000

>From this display I can determine that the distribution for sequence
number 0005 is the member ADJTIMEC from the file UTIL_AS400.  Knowing the
file and member should allow you to make an informed decision about the
distribution.
