Error description

  • The following work-items are included in the APAR
    - Enhancement - Internal RFE 24731: Query lockowner userid from
    threadpool - Ref: Internal RFE 22441
       - Enhancement - Internal RFE 24772: RSE optional
    configuration to skip the inter-process communication in
    lockowner userid discovery
    
    These two work-item fixes are to skip the inter-process
    communication in the file lock owner information discovery. The
    effect is to improve the performance in opening or editing a
    file.
    RSE server now uses a local call in discovery when users are
    from the same threadpool.
    When the file is locked by a user from a different threadpool,
    to enable a local-only discovery call, set the following RSE
    option when starting up the server:
       _RSE_JAVAOPTS="$_RSE_JAVAOPTS
    -Dprocess.skip.inter.lockInfo.disc=true"  (default to 'false')
       Note: the jobname would be returned in the discovery when the
    option is enable, not the user id.

    * USERS AFFECTED: 01.Users of MVS dataset operations.          *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.Users using IDz GUI to open or edit  *
    *                         a dataset (or dataset member) may    *
    *                         experience a delay of ~20 sec due    *
    *                         to timeout in the dataset lockowner  *
    *                         information query. The lock owner    *
    *                         information may not be filled in     *
    *                         the dataset property.                *
    ****************************************************************
    01.In the query for the dataset lockowner information as
       requested by IDz client for dataset operations, to exchange
       the information obtained RSE uses the inter-process
       communication between RSE daemon and threadpools. This
       communication mechanism could be affected by other
       operations of the daemon and threadpools, causing timeout
       and delay in processing the information in exchange.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01.For local users of the same threadpool, turn the
       inter-process communication to local call to avoid the
       possible delay in processing the information exchange. For
       users from different threadpools, if jobname instead of user
       id being returned is acceptable for the lock owner
       information, then using the optional new RSE configuration
       as a work-around also helps. Issues with inter-process
       communication is under investigation.
