RE: Running a program interactively or in batch

Thanks for the reply Glenn
I used your idea of looking at the CPU time used and it is gradually increasing 631928 to 632119
As far as checking the QHST log - and seeing if anything was locked - the job is STILL running
Using WRKJOB option 12 - there are NO locks being waited on

Hi Alan,

Did it actually start at 00:01? Check using WRKJOB option 1, Started Date and Time.

Using WRKJOB option 3, press F5=Refresh and see if the "CPU time used" is increasing. What is the current amount right now?

Check the QHST history log and see what other jobs were running at the same time. Perhaps the job was locked due to a backup that runs until the morning. Perhaps the job was running but didn't get enough of the CPU.

Using WRKJOB option 12, are there any locks it is currently waiting on?


Yours truly,

Hi everyone
Before I forget - we are on v7r1
I have a program that I have been running interactively now for a
couple of weeks with no problems Takes approximately 90 to 120 minutes
This CLLE program copies files, clears some other files then uses the
command RUNSQLSTM using a text file containing a number of SQL scripts
with
COMMIT(*NONE) and creates files in QTEMP

I have now created a WRKJOBSCDE to run the same program at one minute
past midnight I came in this morning to see that the job was still
running No locks No msgw I looked at the job log - nothing out of the
ordinary But I am unable to determine where the program is in the SQL
run

I looked at option 14. Display open files, if active, then pressed F11
to see the relative record number of files I have now been doing this
for a few hours and nothing seems to be moving The call stack doesn't
change either

Does anyone know what I can look at to determine whats happening?
