FW: DDM transmissions hanging

Hi Gerry,

We are experiencing the same thing with an old V4R4 system (that's being
upgraded in about a month). We are also experiencing severe problems with
SNADS between a few V5R1 and V5R2 systems, and these problems all seem to
have started at roughly the same time. These symptoms are happening for
different customers with different networks (so that's not the common
factor). The one thing in common with all of them is anynet.

We also have spoken to IBM without any success.

Other things we've tried include switching the DDM file definition from SNA
to IP, and switching on virtual APPN support. Neither seemed to make much
difference.

Sorry I can't offer help, but I'm definitely interested in any responses
you get!

Thanks

Hi all,

I've seen this mentioned in the past but having trawled the archives I
haven't managed to find a reason or solution so I'll ask the list.

We use DDM to transfer data both ways between ourselves and a client, all
day every day.  Most days we have no problems, but occasionally the job
just seems to "hang".  The opened files do not seem to move, nor does the
invocation stack which sits on a recv().

We've done communications traces and dumped joblogs which IBM have scanned
and come up with nothing.  Has anyone experienced the same thing and did
you get it resolved?
