Re: SAVOBJ checkpoint failure

Yeah, checking for a lock on the library is normally a waste of time.

Usually that is an individual file or member that is open and locked. I
would check to see if there are any communications open from RDi, VSCode or
other that appear to be moving data. We just had a similar circumstance at
a customer this weekend although that was with an NFS transfer that had
stalled.

We have a process that backs up our dev source and pushes it over to our

months

with no problem. We are doing a SAVOBJ to a *SAVF with SAVACT(*LIB) and
now
it is failing on one library with the message



Save ended. Unable to reach checkpoint.



I just did the command manually and got the same error. I immediately

did

a
WRKOBJLCK on the library and there are no locks on it. This process

works

on other libraries so it is just one specific library that is "broken".
Since the library only contains source, there shouldn't be anything using
it.



I recommended opening a ticket with IBM but the admins want to have a
meeting first to discuss this and that is not going to happen until
tomorrow
which means we lose another night's backup.



Does anyone have any idea what I can look at in advance?
