To my knowledge there are two ways in rexx to "sleep" : /* REXX */ /* How to make rexx wait for 5 seconds .... ILBOWAT0 is an LE supplied program */ X=5 PARM=D2C(X,4) ADDRESS LINKPGM "ILBOWAT0 PARM" /* Alternatively you can use a USS program as follows */ bpxbatch "pgm /bin/sleep 5s"
They both work .... Whichever is the best performer, however, I have no clue ....
