Return Code 61 - EXCLUSIVE CONTROL, WAIT EXCEEDED

Reason:

The time limit set in the DBURSTR macro has been exceeded.

To assist in debugging, diagnostic information is passed at X'1A' into the Request Area. It consists of a two-byte hexadecimal DBRW-ID (the DBRW-ID is that for which this request was attempting to wait).

Action:

See the following internal return code for details.

The time limit set in the DBURSTR macro in either the TIMESEC= or TIMEMIN= User Requirements
Table parameter has been
exceeded.

In CA Datacom STAR, this return
code can occur when a job has
control of a record at one node
and is waiting on a specific record
at another node while a second
job is waiting on the record
controlled by the first job and
controls the record that the first
job is waiting on at the second
node.

To increase the time limit, increase the value of either the TIMESEC= or TIMEMIN= parameter. Specify a value for one or the other but not both. Valid entries for both parameters are 0—120. The default value for both parameters is zero. If both parameters have a zero value there is no time limit imposed resulting in a wait forever condition. Specify TIMESEC=1 to not wait at all.
