EP#5820 modification of files

modification of files Requestor: D'ARVA SOCIETE Platform: MF SR-Number: 707497 Product Code: ADA Initial Importance: medium Proposal: To access (and update/store) ADABAS data on the mainframe from our Web server, we use EntireX servers (as STCs) which are permanently present. Because of this, we have difficulties to perform file modifications with ADADBS (ALLOCATE/DEALLOCATE/CHANGE….) as files are considered as being in use (ADABAS response code 48) because they are marked as such in the user queue as soon as one STC has accessed them, even though they might not be accessed for hours at times. Those STCs being resilient, the files are constantly in "use" and we cannot do any operation on them unless we stop our services. An option like 'in parallel' should be added, so these functions are possible, even if a file is in use. This is important for 24/7 services.

    Possibly an option would be to STOP users who are timed out & that way you can access the file.
