Issue/Introduction

What is the meaning of IDADPSEP10E  message?

 

Environment

z/os, CA IDEAL for Datacom  14.0 and higher. 

Cause

If you get the IDADPSEP10E message with a user ID, but it has been verified the user is not editing the program, it means:

-1 There is a "ghost" copy of the program on VLS

and

-2 There is an abandoned IDEAL Session for that user.

IDADPSEP10

PGM pgm name in use by user_user-id, please try later

Reason:

The program PROCEDURE is being edited by the user specified.

Action:

Try again later or contact the user to verify they are still accessing the program in an edit session. If not, then that user should edit the program and expect to get a message to choose ROLLBACK or CHECKPOINT to recover a previously abended edit session

 

Resolution

DISPLAY INDEX SESSION to find the user. The OPID in the D IND SES display is the ID in the IDADPSEP10E message.

VLSUTIL LIBRARY (or Dis Index member user @I$SRC)  listing for the IDEAL source file will show the PROGRAM MEMBER name with an " E" for the edit (or "ghost") copy. The "E" copy would be deleted at the end of an EDIT session.

If the IDEAL session ends abnormally, i.e. the WINDOW is closed without ending the edit and signing off IDEAL, the edit copy remains in VLS.

When the abandoned session for the TERMID is PURGEd (PURGE tttt command in IDEAL) or re-used by the same user, then that user will get the CHECKPOINT OR ROLLBACK message when they EDIT the program. 

If a user DISPLAYs PROGRAM that is not being EDITd by another user and does NOT have a "ghost" copy in VLS from a failed EDIT session,
   Then the 2nd user who tries to get exclusive control with EDIT PGM x will get the message IDADPSEP03E "PGM xxxx in used, please try later" without any USERID specified.
