From what I've read, the problem is not OPTION specific -- it's more of a
general problem when doing anything within menu manager. If you're hanging
when you issue a "?" at a menu prompt something's really messed up --
either corrupted code or a db problem.
Open up another session window and do a jobexam (whatever the command is in
GTM) while the other process is "hung". Keep refreshing the output because
you may see that it's in some kind of recursive loop.
I'd be super duper surprised if there was a locking issue -- I dont think
menu manager locks the global when a user enters "?" at a "top level" menu
(hard enough to get people to insert locks on a db write, much less a read).
I was going to reply with the below, but when I saw the initial question
was that the system hung when entering a "?" at a menu prompt, it sounds
like there's a bigger issue here than just the SS option.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not really sure what process is hanging, but if it's the System Status
menu option, what I'd do is:
First I'd get to a programmer's prompt and execute each piece of the
option's ENTRY ACTION, one at a time, to see if any of these by itself is
causing a problem.
If not, then I'd check via the menu system by:
Create a temp routine with the ENTRY ACTION broken up so it's one
command per line.
Create a dummy menu option that has a temp routine as it's ROUTINE field.
D ^XUP and enter the dummy option's name and then check which line is
causing the system to hang.
I don't see anything here that would cause a system to behave like the
explanation.
