Recovery actions for a WTOR buffer shortage

Enter a DISPLAY R,R command to see the accumulated WTOR messages.
  • Reply to the outstanding WTOR messages.
  • Cancel jobs that are currently issuing WTOR macros.
  • Enter the CONTROL M,RLIM command to increase the number of WTOR buffers.
Note: The RLIM value cannot be higher than the RMAX value (RMAX is the highest possible reply ID). If you need to increase RLIM higher than RMAX, consider entering the CONTROL M,RMAX command to increase RMAX. To determine the current values of RLIM and RMAX, issue the K M,REF command.

The value of RMAX controls the number of digits in all reply IDs. For example, increasing RMAX to 100 (or higher) causes all WTORs to have 3-digit reply IDs. This might affect automation routines. Check with the system programmer before increasing RMAX higher than 99.

If the shortage recurs, have the system programmer increase the value for RLIM or RMAX in the CONSOLxx parmlib member. It is suggested that you use a RMAX value of 9999.
