I have a process that has failed a couple of times.  PgmA writes a record and then calls PgmB with they key info.  On rare occasions, the chain to the file from PgmB fails.

The file in question is not unique keyed and I'm wondering if the record is being buffered and not visible to the called program.  I recall reading something about that a long time ago and that the fix is to have a unique key (LF?) over the physical file.  Is that correct?  Is FRCRATIO(1) essentially the same thing?  It's not a high volume process.  Maybe 12,000 records on a busy day.

Thoughts?

Thank you.
