Is there a maximum number of outstanding WTORs allowed? How long does a message
token last. I have to build a piece of fairly complex logic that has to read
data and do look ups before responding to a console message. It can have
extreme variability in finding and waiting for a response. Most of
the underlying program may not be an option
for you.

Thank you. Yes I do not have any options for rewriting the application itself.

I have to make it work in context of a fully automated sta

Thanks Kees. When there are lots of outstanding WTORs for all the IMS and other
subsystems it can flood the console and you don't see other messages going by.
In my code example I make them non-display so they never actually apprear on
the console, but it means that I could have 47 invisible WTO

Did you allow them to stack up on the console? or did you K E,? them? and if so
how did you keep track of which reply numbers were outstanding hidden off the
console?

At one job I was on the standards committee and ended up writing quite a few
COBOL/JOB/JCL standards.
One of the first was that no COBOL (no other languages were permitted) could
not have any WTORS. Some programmers objected to it and we got in a nice
discussion about operators priorities and I

There are two CONSOLxx parameters, RLIM and RMAX, that govern WTOR and REPLY
behavior. These can be dynamically changed via the CONTROL M (K M) command.
RLIM sets the REPLY LIMIT, number of WTORs t
