Great solution. Thank you very much. We are not using DB2,ours is file system.So we cant use commit command. After processing 1000 records if we close the file then record locks will be released.Then open the file again and process the remaining 1000 records. Is my understanding correct? Can...

Thanks for the reply. In my cobol program when i was trying to update 2000 records(in record lock mode) i faced an issue saying that max number of locks have been performed(though i give unlock for each record). So i resolved this issue by locking the entire file.But user dint accept the...

Hi everyone, I would like to know will the records (which have been committed in the previous commit control)be rolled back when the program abends in the current commit control? Thanks in advance

Thanks for your valuable suggestion. We are not using any database. We are sure that there is some limit on locking for a single process.How to increase that limit is the question. We are doubtful on whether we have to change any Operating system properties or in some other way. One solution...

we used unlock verb,even then i got the error.We resolved the problem by using "filelock" instead of "recordlock".But filelock is not advisable.So can you please suggest me how i can proceed further? the code we used is: READ NETDFILE WITH LOCK KEY IS PRIMARY-ID OF NETD-REC ........some move...

Hi finally we could resolve the problem by file locking instead of record locking. As file locking is not advisable we are trying to achieve the same using record locking. After processing 1600 records we are calling the same process for the processing of remaining records.Because we found...

Thanks for ur suggestion. I ll tey to find the reason. The error which i got is:: 35 - Unable to obtain an I/O process control block, or the transaction or open lock unit limit has been reached. Cause. All I/O process control blocks are in use, or a requester tried to acquire too many...

Thanks for the response u ve given. Ya my manager suggested that after 1000 records have been processed successfully close the file and open it.we tried that also but got the same error. Currently code is doing record lock for every record while reading and after rewriting the record it is...

Thanks for ur valuable answer......today we found that guardian environment in which we are running the program stops the process as it exeeds the lock limit...it is stating that "unable to obtain i/o processing control block...the transaction or open lock unit limit has been reached".... In...
