PH06388: A PACING VALUE OF PACING=1.0 WITH A SMALL MAXWAIT NOT PACING AS EXPECTED

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Running LOAD with PACING=1.0 and MAXWAIT 00:00:15 (or any small
  MAXWAIT) causes PACING not to wait (or pace as expected).
  
  PACING < 1.0 and PACING > 1.0 does work fine.
  Also PACING=1.0 with MAXWAIT or 10 minutes or more also works
  fine.
  
  This is a duplicate of a canceled APAR PI89180.  It has been
  determined that this needed to be addressed after all.
  

Local fix

• Change PACING to be more or less than 1.0 or adjust MAXWAIT
  as described above.

  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of QCF 3.2                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Specifying PACING=1.0 did not reinsert  *
  *                      the data set at the same rate that they *
  *                      were originally inserted. The duration  *
  *                      of reinsertion was much quicker, or     *
  *                      twice as long.                          *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Install the APAR to have pacing work as      *
  *                 expected and set in control cards            *
  ****************************************************************
  Specifying PACING=1.0 did not reinsert the data set at the same
  rate that they were originally inserted. The duration of
  reinsertion was much quicker, or twice as long as the original
  time.
