PI83538: THE PACING STATEMENT OF THE LOAD CONTROL STATEMENT IS NOT INSERTING MESSAGES AT THE EXPECTED SLOWER RATE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using the PACING= statement to slow the rate messages are
  inserted to the IMS message queue, the expected slower rate
  of inserting is not occurring.  This is due to a problem with
  the first message waiting too long, which therefore is causing
  the next and subsequent messages to not wait.
