GOTRETRY control statement

The GOTRETRY control statement is used to retry database accesses for PROCOPT=GOT. When encountering an incorrect pointer with HIDAM, HDAM, PHIDAM, and PHDAM databases, HSSR Engine, by default, attempts to access the database access four times, with 5-second intervals between attempts. GOTRETRY can be used to change the default value for both the number of access attempts and the number of seconds to wait between these access attempts.
