Why? The question is about running server jobs simultaneously, not about parallel jobs.

We have jobs running in parallel.
Got confused. :oops: I have deleted the quete in my previous post, to avoid confusion.

Hi Arnd,

I still have that patch. Here's what the readme says:

Brief description of problem (ecase 70788)
==========================================

Increase the timeout in DSD.RUN from 60 seconds
to 600 seconds to allow for cases where the D/S
server is under heavy load.


Instructions for installing the patch for ecase 70788
=====================================================

This patch consists of a single BASIC object module DSD_RUN.B.

The patch should be applied to every project and the template
as specified below:

1) Ensure the project is not active
2) Locate the DSD_RUN.B file in the directory DSD_BP.O
3) Rename DSD_RUN.B DSD_RUN.B.saved
4) Copy the new file (DSD_RUN.B) into place in DSD_BP.O directory

-- End of document --

But - I hope you understand - I will not distribute it through means of this forum. It has to be distributed by the official IBM support channel.

Best regards
Klaus

Klaus,

thanks! Since this customer has a case open about this problem and the local representative has stated that the 60-second limit is hardcoded I thought that passing on the ecase number would be a good way to get the problem resolved 8)

Tausend Dank,

If you look at the dates you would see that this problem is over 3 years old. Patches are generally available for download once you login to IBM's website .

And that 'official IBM support channel' means you need to ask for it from Support and they will make it downloadable for you. It will not be generally available.

I should note that Klaus, who gave us the information, was working for IBM at the time and could not do anything apart from referring us to the official IBM support path.
