When executing multiple Online Reorganizations in parallel, using Database Organizer for IMS for z/OS (DBO),
a timeout error may occur when the ITK Started Task tries to issue an IMS command.
For example:
The DBO jobs fails with the following errors in the job output:
HPO3002E PAUS TIMEOUT WHILE AWAITING A RESPONSE FROM system
HPO0A01E ERROR TRYING TO /DBD DATABASE dbname , R15=0000HPO1101E ERROR TRYING TO /STA DATABASE dbname , R15=0000
HPO1D02E UNABLE TO REINSTATE THE ORIGINAL DATABASE
In the ITK (HPO) Started Task, LXCF error similar to the following, may be seen:
HPO2402E LXCF ERROR, R15=00000008, R0=00000008, FUNCTION=xxxxxxxxHPO2402E ATTEMPTED RESPONSE:GOOD FOR REQUEST:DISC MVS:system IMS:imsid DBD:dbname
This is likely to be a legitimate timeout situation. Keep in mind that the more FFORs that are run concurrently, the more likely you are to see timeout issues.
Increase the timeout value by specifying PAUSETIMEOUT=300 (which is 5 mins).
The default value for PAUSETIMEOUT is 60 (seconds).
To override the default value, PAUSETIMEOUT can be added to the control statements of the Reorg Function
or to the HPOREORG global Parmlib member.
