Hi there,

I am using XCOM to send .txt files and .dat files to a landing zone.

The process has worked fine until now but the process has had to be expanded to send a total of 83 files to this landing zone.

On 2 seperate test runs, the number of files sent has stopped at 80. There does not appear to be a problem with the code in the XCOM steps.

Does anyone know if the maimum number of XCOM steps in one job is 80?

Thanks,
Declan

what do you mean - stopped. was there any error or msg given in the job. You need to look at the jes output.

although there are limitations to the number of steps in a job, number of dd statements in a step, etc.. the limitation is based on the JCL not what the job steps are doing. in any event, if the jcl exceeded any limits, the job would not have run; no steps would have been executed.

you need to take a deep breath, relax and look at jes to see what happened between the 80'th and 81st step. it could be a simple as a blank line between the steps which would have signaled the end of the JCL stream - which would generate NO ERROR; simply end of job.
