I have a job running on CA7. First step is to transmit one dataset to my site. Step 2 is to process it.
Now the problem is that, 1st step always returns 0 before the file is transfered completely, therefore makes step2 fail.
I dont wanna seperate this job to be two jobs.
Can CA7 let step 2 wait for several minutes after step 1 completes? Or can JCL do...
Any helps? |

You really should fix this problem instead of putting in a band-aid solution.

You should, though.

I don't think so, but a search of the forums for the keywords "sleep" and "wait" ought to provide some solutions. |

Hi,
most scheduling tools have utilities you can run to delay/ sleep / wait for however long is required.
I'm sure CA7 has similar facility available (it's a long time since I used CA7, and I mean a long time)

Maybe when it was UCC-7? |

Hi Dick,
ok, you let the cat out of the bag, it was that long ago.

Not so long . . .
IIRC UCC-7 didn't come out until the early 80's.
