Handling an Incompletely Processed READ

A READ_MULT request might complete prematurely if not enough buffer space is available or the coupling facility model dependent timeout criteria is exceeded. If this happens, the following is returned in the answer area:

Appropriate return and reason codes
Number of list entries for which data has been returned
A restart token or extended restart token, which can be used to resume processing the request.

To continue processing, reissue the request specifying the restart token or extended restart token as input.

Continue reissuing the READ_MULT request until the return code indicates that all processing has completed.

See READ_MULT: Reading Multiple List Entries from One or More Lists for additional information about reading list entries from multiple lists, including how to handle an incompletely processed request.
