Endevor - Signouts set at final stage

Hi All,

We are facing the below problem in Endevor.

Problem:
Signout is getting set at production (final) stage (which shouldn't happen) at very few times for few element types.

Environment:
The elements are moved to production through Rexx and Endevor environment.

I know this is a very vague question to ask. I would like to know whether any of you have faced the similar scenario and suggestions/inputs regarding the same is invited

yes, have encountered this problem with my co-workers that don't bother to familiarize themselves with their environment, or read, or even look at the panel presented.

when you move (migrate) an element, there is an ACTION OPTION (y/n) RETAIN SIGNOUT. (right side of the panel).

Hi,

Sorry that i didn't provide more info in my previous mail. I already loooked in to that option also. Currently we are moving the elements to production stage through Batch mode (JCL).

one more point i didn't mention in my previous post is, the element is moved to production first and then after few days, the sign out is set.

Sorry again

Senthil,
Check the last action of the element which you see the element signed out, I guess it should be "SIGN OUT" instead of "MOVE" which you done from dev to production.

If you want that element to work for your project now, you can always retrieve that element and can work of placing the option "OVER RIDR SIGN OUT = N" . this action will not disturb any others work in Endevor.

Usualy every site would have set that in defaults of setting Endevor, it would have been set that retain signout =n for move actions in Endevor. especially to Production.

Hope it helps.

forgot to add, for better information, you contact your Endevor product support team at your site.

HI Srinu,

Thanks for your reply. Of course you are correct in the way that the 'Override signout' option can set the signout at production.

For us, this is also one of the cause. But we found out that major problem lies in our REXX environment.

Thanks all for your info and time.
