Hi,

Is there any timeout while reading the segments in IMS DC?

If I am reading a segment and processing it before going for the next read, and if I am going to have a large number of segments, is there a possibility of a timeout?

Thanks.

The PROCLIM parameter in the TRANSACT macro for the transaction definition defines the maximum time limit that a transaction can run. This parameter is assigned when the transaction is defined to IMS but can be modified by using the PLMCT parameter of the /ASSIGN command. This modified value will last until IMS is cold started. If you display the transaction in IMS, it is the value listed under PLCT.

The PROCLIM parameter is explained in the IMS Installation Guide Volume 2.

The online cobol program might be going into the loop while reading the segment. So after reaching the maximum time limit, the transaction will through this abend code.
