RE: EE connections including STRPASTHR, SNADS, SAVRSTLIB and DDM will hang for 20 seconds to 4 minutes

Rob,

I created a test IP DDMF, as you suggested.
I kept RMTFILE and RMTLOCNAME the same as the SNA version.

CRTDDMF FILE(GPL/PENCOR06IP) RMTFILE(PENCOR06) RMTLOCNAME(pencor06 *IP)
File PENCOR06IP created in library GPL.

Tested SBMRMTCMD using both IP and SNA DDM files

IP
SBMRMTCMD CMD('endsbs batch_pl') DDMFILE(PENCOR06IP)
Database connection started over TCP/IP or a local socket.
Following messages created on target system PENCOR06.
Ending of subsystem BATCH_PL in progress.

SNA
SBMRMTCMD CMD('endsbs batch_pl') DDMFILE(PENCOR06)
Remote database job started.
Following messages created on target system PENCOR06.
Ending of subsystem BATCH_PL in progress.

Paul

Being on the receiving end of CRTDDMF is not what changed SYSIBM/SYSDUMMY1 to not allow updates, deletes and inserts. It was built from IBM that way.
There are few operations which will change a file's attributes this way.

Once these attributes are changed then the only way to update the data is from certain IBM APIs that are hidden from mortals.
