Retry Count and Wait Time

There are multiple retry counts and wait times in the settings related to the wait time for acquiring exclusive control when handling the Send files and the Receive files in HULFT.

You can change the wait time for acquiring exclusive control of the Send files and the Receive files by modifying the settings of the following fields in the System Environment Settings file:

Retry Count

Retry Count on Locked Send File (LOCKCNT)

Retry Count on Locked Receive File (RCVLOCKCNT)

Retry Count on Locked System File (SYSLOCKCNT)

Wait time

Wait Time on Locked Send File (LOCKTIME)

Wait Time on Locked Receive File (RCVLOCKTIME)

Wait Time on Locked System File (SYSLOCKTIME)

In the case where a field of retry count is set to '0' and its counterpart wait time is set to '30' (seconds), HULFT will end waiting for the exclusive control when the control is acquired on the first execution of ALCOBJ. The application will wait for a maximum of 30 seconds until the acquisition of exclusive control.

In the case where a field of retry count is set to '1' and its counterpart wait time is set to '30' (seconds), HULFT will wait for 30 seconds on the first execution of ALCOBJ and it will wait for further 30 seconds on the second execution of ALCOBJ. The application will wait for a maximum of 60 seconds until the acquisition of exclusive control. If you want to set the application so as not to wait, specify '0' for the fields of the retry count and its counterpart wait time, respectively.
