Fix Recommendation

Use TASK SYSGEN if online, or program RHDCSGEN if batch.

Sign on to the dictionary where the system definition is maintained: "SIGNON DICTIONARY SYSTEM.", for example.

Enter: "MODIFY SYSTEM 123 INACTIVE INTERVAL is <the organization-defined timeout number of wall-clock seconds> ." where 123 is the number of the system being modified.

Enter: "MODIFY SYSTEM 123 RUNAWAY INTERVAL is <the organization-defined timeout number of wall-clock seconds> ." where 123 is the number of the system being modified.

Enter: "VALIDATE."

Enter: "GENERATE."

The change will become effective the next time the CV is stopped and started.

Note: The system INACTIVE INTERVAL can be overridden with the INACTIVE INTERVAL TASK parameters, e.g., for task RHDCNP3S which services external tasks/sessions.

Note: The UCFCICZ interface may also be used to clean up the CA IDMS session if access is through CICS and the CICS session has ended.

Check Contents

Use task SYSGEN if online, or program RHDCSGEN if batch.

Sign on to the dictionary where the System definition is maintained: "SIGNON DICTIONARY SYSTEM.", for example.

Enter: "DISPLAY SYSTEM 123." where 123 is the number of the system being checked.

Scroll through the returned text until "INACTIVE INTERVAL" is found.

If the associated value is not the organization-defined timeout number of wall-clock seconds, this is a finding.

Scroll through the returned text until "RUNAWAY INTERVAL" is found.

If the associated value is not the organization-defined timeout number of wall-clock seconds, this is a finding.
