Paul,

It would have to be a "long running" job that has been running at least since prior to when the object was last replaced. That is the only way for a job to be pointing to a now renamed object in QRPLOBJ.

See this post from the old MI400 list for one way to find out which job it is:

https://archive.midrange.com/mi400/200211/msg00008.html

That post shows how to use the QWVOLACT API to list the activations for any given job. You will need to invoke it for each long-running job on your system, and then look at the output, to find the one(s) that list the now renamed program(s) in question.

Hope that helps,

Mark S .Waterbury

Hi,

No, IPL is longer ago.

The days used counter on the object still increases each day... so there must still be a job on the system that is using it ?

Which one is the question.

Kind regards,
Paul

If you've IPL'd in the last 100 days...

It's not being used...

Hi,

As a follow up to the initial question, how can we see which job is still
using the object in QRPLOBJ (or whatever library).

I just noticed we have an object in QRPLOBJ that's already been used for
more then 100 days.

Just using a program is not causing a lock on it, so is there another
method for finding out ?

Kind regards,
Paul
