RE: [SYSTEM21] EDI Transmission Hanging

You can set up an auto reply to the message.  I don't know how to do it, but
I know it can be done.  This might have limited application if it is a very
generic message.

Also, you can buy monitoring software (such as Bytware's Messenger Plus)
that can answer the message or send a page to your cellphone to let you know
something is up.  It is very flexible.

You could even use this software to answer the message from a cellphone
while you are out of the office.

We use this software, and like it very much.

PS:  I don't work for Bytware :)

Subject: [SYSTEM21] EDI Transmission Hanging


Our system wakes up every hour to transmit and receive transaction from our
VAN, it retries 3 times if the line is busy, then terminates the call. About
once a month, it "forgets" to terminate the call. The job just hangs and all
other jobs are waiting in line behind it. And it usually happens during the
night or week-end.

Any clue on how to setup a trigger in the system that would monitor this
job, and after 30 minutes, would terminate it. It can't look at CPU usage
since it is not taking any.
