When the resource manager exit hangs

If the resource manager exit hangs, the system logger application that issued the write or delete request that triggered the exit might not be able to complete. Do the following to resolve the hang:
  • Cancel the task that issued the write or delete request.
  • Cancel the resource manager's address space.
  • Restart the application that issued the write or delete request.
  • Correct the hang condition in the resource manager exit.
  • Restart the resource manager's address space.
If the resource manager abends and percolates the error back to system logger's recovery environment, the resource manager is disabled. When a resource manager is disabled, the exit for the resource manager is no longer called by write or delete requests against the log stream on the system where the resource manager abended. An ENF 48 event is issued when the resource manager exit is disabled.
