Restarting Requests Multiple Times with Index Values

z/OS MVS Programming: Sysplex Services Guide
SA23-1400-00

It is possible for a request to complete prematurely multiple times. Each time, you must restart the request until it completes normally. The following series of events shows how to handle these requests:

  1. The request completes prematurely and the system returns an index value in the answer area.
  2. Process any information that may have been returned from the request.
  3. Issue IXLCACHE to restart the request. You must reinitialize the starting index based on the index value returned. All other keywords coded on the original request need to be coded on the restart request.
  4. The request again completes prematurely and the system returns an index value in the answer area.
  5. Process any information that may have been returned from the request.
  6. Issue IXLCACHE with the reinitialized starting index value to restart the request.

Continue this process until the system completes processing all the data specified by the request.
