Re: JDE QZDASOINIT restarts

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan,

The QZDASOINIT jobs were getting somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 -6 
uses before they are restarted, so clearly IBM i is not dong the 
restarts.  Even changing the prestart job to a much higher number of 
uses did not cure the problem, so clearly it's an application somewhere 
that's causing the problem.  There are significant number of QZDASOINIT 
jobs running and with that number of jobs at 200 uses each this system 
would go a week without a restart.  Again clearly there is a setting 
somewhere that is causing the problem.

I know the work management portion of it extremely well, it's the JDE 
processes I don't know.

You can change it. (Well, delete the prestart entry and make a new one). The F1-help behind that in ADDPJE has some comments about keeping the number of uses relatively small to keep from running out of log space or user storage max usage. 200 uses might be roughly equivalent to two hours. There's roughly one QZDASOINIT job for each JDBC/ODBC connection. We use connection pools extensivily in our code and QZDASOINIT jobs will stay up for a long time, depending on how the connection pool and the prestart job entries are configured.
