6.19 I have a process that logs it's activity to a file. Easy enough. Just:
File logfile=log.group.account,old
Echo Some log record>>*logfile
Worked like a charm during development. Then came training day, with lots of these jobs hitting the queue all at once. We noticed that not all log records were being posted; but there were also no errors. What is happening?
Try using ;SHR;GMULTI when appending to log files from possibly multiple jobs at possibly the same time. And, ACC=APPEND does not hurt either.
