Hello all,
We cycle our CICS partitions (1 test, 1 prod) every night. It has just been
brought to my attention that these seem to be taking an inordinate amount of
time to shut down. I have no idea how long this has been happening, but we
went to VSE 2.7.1 on April 17. We issue the shutdown in a REXX proc with:
MSG SAGPROD,DATA=CEMT P,SHUT
Looking back at the console, I can see there is about a 7 minute time lapse
between the journal files being closed and a warm keypoint being taken:
C1 0098 DFHZC2305I SAGPROD TERMINATION OF VTAM SESSIONS BEGINNING
21.08.02
C1 0098 DFHZC2316 SAGPROD VTAM ACB IS CLOSED 05/18/04
21.08.16
C1 0098 DFHJC4510I SAGPROD ALL OPEN JOURNALS NOW CLOSED 05/18/04
21.08.27
C1 0098 DFHWK0105I SAGPROD WARM KEYPOINT SUCCESSFUL. 05/18/04
21.15.24
C1 0054 DFHDU0303I SAGPROD TRANSACTION DUMP DATA SET DFHDMPA CLOSED.
21.15.24
C1 0054 DFHKE1799 SAGPROD TERMINATION OF CICS IS COMPLETE. 05/18/04
21.15.24
Is this normal? I recall CICS taking just 3 or 4 minutes to shutdown
previously and we're now looking at 8 to 10 minutes. Any ideas what it is
doing during this 7 minutes that would take so long?
