    ****************************************************************
    Output messages are attached to the parent transaction
    at ENQ time. When an output message is cancelled there
    is no ENQ and the Response becomes an "orphan". When
    sufficient messages are orphaned then IMS PA storage
    manager (IPI4QMGR) can not acquire more storage and
    can not release the storage for the orphaned
    transactions, hence it loops.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Delete Response entries when output messages are
    cancelled.
