Hi,

Are there any IBM supplied MVS wait module source Codes which would help in eradicating the -911 and -904 situations.

STIMER is an Assembler macro. What does this have to do with DB2?

Hi Steve,

I am just looking for a DB2 specific WAIT module which uses STIMER macro. Its like whenever a DB2 transactions encounters DEADLOCK or consumes more CPU then this Module will cancel those Transactions. So basically the WAIT module would use the STIMER macro set the time intervals.

Ah, NO thisw is NOT something you would want. Once the DEADLOCK condition has been dected, no amount of waiting will free it. . . That is why it is called a deadlock.

When a deadlock occurs it is a design deficiency. Review the processes and correct the order in which things are locked.
