Dealing with stuck processes

Consider the causes of a stuck process, when it cannot proceed because it is waiting for an event that cannot, or does not, occur. You can use timers or process timers to restart a stuck process.

There are several possible causes:

A faulty application design. See Application design errors.
A request to start an activity on a remote system is unserviceable. See Dealing with unserviceable requests.
A CICS region fails. See Dealing with CICS failures.
