Monitor, with APT_STARTUP_STATUS, both in the good times and the bad. Try to discover any correlation with the machines' workloads.

Not in any version 7x. There is a glitch that prevents your using the DB2/UDB Enterprise stage with AS/400; you have to use the DB2 API stage, which has no inherent parallel capability.

Whether or not U can do this these things is a matter of little importance. U is one of the infrequent posters at this site. The second person personal pronoun in English is spelled "you", not "u". The plural present tense form of the verb "to be" is spelled "are", not "r". DSXchange is not a mobil...

Check that the -t option does what you think it does, using the man sort command. Options for the sort command differ on different UNIXes.

In particular is anything else occurring at the same time that might be locking that particular record or, indeed, the entire hashed file (e.g. another job executing "clear file before writing"). As Ken suggests, you may have a synchronization issue here.

If this happens frequently you must address the causes. Why is the lock table filling? If you determine that all the locks taken are being taken genuinely, then it becomes time to tune the size of the READU lock table, by adjusting the GSEMNUM and RLTABSZ parameters in uvconfig and regenerating the ...

You can use a UniVerse stage. If the hashed file was created in the account (project) that's fine. If the hashed file was created in a directory you will need to create a pointer in VOC. Search the forum for the SETFILE command and how to use it. The UniVerse stage also supports multi-row return fro...
