I have tested your programs with one major difference on my UV9.6: PGM2 eventually abandoms the wait but does not go into the THEN block, i.e., the 'READU END' is not displayed. As per Martin's email, the time to wait is controlled by the LOCK.WAIT.

Then, I have launch PGM2 on a second telnet session. I was expecting the PGM2 waits until I kill PGM1. Instead of that I get the following output from PGM2: -------------------------------- 10:56:08 READU START 11:56:09 READU END --------------------------------- It seems the locks are automatically released by UV after one hour ??? Is something wrong in my configuration ? Does this mean the READU locks are released after one hour ? Is there a tunable parameter to adjust this delay ? Can anybody help me ? I am using UV 9.5.2.1 on an alpha server Unix tru64 V5.1 Thanks and regards, ====== The EFG Mail Gateway made the following annotation(s). ====== -------- Disclaimer ---------------------------- This e-mail is confidential.
