IDMS

How long does a dmcl new copy take?  I'm in the middle of one right now and it is taking forever.

Mike

The DMCL VARY NEW COPY needs a quiesce point.  So if you have a batch

job running or a DMLO session, it will wait until they are finished.

Laura,  thanks for the info.  Might be batch running now.

Mike

Will IDMS complete this new copy command once the quiesce point is found if it's been a long time or will the command be dropped by IDMS because waiting too long? 

if you do a DCMT D TASK, you probably have a HELOT task which will

complete the VARY DMCL.

If you go into LOCKMON and do W AR, you will be able to see where the

locks are.

Laura

my session is hung in IDMS

What will happen to the DMCL new copy task if I cancel my IDMS session?  Will IDMS roll it back?  What happens to the task when the CV is cycled?

IDMS DC021108 V10 MULTIPLE SIGNON NOT ALLOWED. USER MBARTA SIGNED ON LTERM LTERM036 

Can this be canceled in IDMS?  IF so how?

Another possibility is a timer task... I ran into this problem last

week.  Once I disabled the timer task, the VARY DMCL went thru.

I don't know if there is a way to cancel the VARY request.  If you

cancel the HELOT task, it comes back.

Is your question how to cancel the first user session? Or how to cancel the restriction?

If the latter,

Perhaps you might consider your sysgen specifying

MULTIPLE SIGNONS IS YES

Chris,

I was wondering how to cancel the user assign to LTERM LTERM036 ?

I have also found that if you are making changes that impact buffers used by system tasks, like loader rununits, all the run units need to be terminated be fore the new copy will complete. It goes back to what Laura mentioned like the long running batch job.
