Issue/Introduction
Is there a way to determine waits on CHKUSER tasks?
Is there a way to detect when the CV is short on CHKUSER tasks? It is preferable to not have to wait until one becomes available to abort the ERUS.

Resolution
There is no such thing as a wait on a Check User task. The purpose of the CKUR is to notify IDMS when the batch job goes away between DML commands. Any wait time would be associated with the EXTERNAL WAIT TIME as IDMS would have no way to distinguish between the amount of time since the last DML processed and the failure of the batch job in its address space. If the external wait time exceeded the CV's External Wait value, the CV task would be aborted and recovered if no CKUR was available. However as soon as a CKUR task was available, an attempt to assign it to the failed batch job would be recognized and the CV task aborted.
