RE: Terrible time with this repeated error!

["Fisher, Don" <Dfisher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are a couple of ways you can handle this.  The first is to use OPNDBF
YPOSF1 *INP     (or *ALL if you need update ability) and monitor for the
failure message.  If the command fails, DLYJOB <some number of seconds>, and
then try again.  Have the program keep making the attempt until successful.

Assuming this is an RPG program, the other way is to specify USROPN (or UC
if RPGIII) in the program with an indicator in the "LO" position.  If the
indicator is on the file is unavailable.  The program could then wait some
amount of time and attempt to open the file again until successful.  Check
the archives for the myriad ways a job may be delayed. 

Hope that helps.
