Create a user exit in SYSEXT to perform a SCAN across all FUSER or FNAT .It can be similar to the existing SCAN tool. The replace function is not required and may be a bit dangerous. This way we can search all source code for a specific string, be...

Editor Buffer Pool management of Recovery Files

Most of the Natural applicative programmers do not delete their Recovery Files - which results from time to time in an overflowed EBP. My suggestion is to: (a) Make a timeout parameter for Recovery Files as well (same as FTOUT for Logical Files). ...

Higher precision for *CPU-TIME

We need a higher precision for *CPU-TIME so that we can determine the CPU time consumed by individual RPC requests in a batch RPC server. The vast majority of our transactions are faster than 10ms. We currently do this using an assembler program, ...
