Error description
CPSM Async API REXX. In the exec, a GET with the NOWAIT option is coded. Later, a RECEIVE with DELAY(5) attribute is coded. This code works, but the REXX program waits for 5 seconds regardless of the output becoming available during the delay period. The manuals says "If output becomes available during the delay period, control returns to the processing thread."

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of CPSM V5R4M0 and V5R5M0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A batch job uses CPSM API to issue * * EXEC CPSM REVEIVE, specifying 'DELAY' * * option. The behavior for this batch job * * is inconsistent with documented * * behavior. * **************************************************************** The method ABAG processes the RECEIVE command, which uses the macro STIMER to wait for the time specified in the DELAY option to expire. The method ABAG is in a wait state until the time expires. The wait won't end when the result becomes available within specified DELAY time.
Problem conclusion
Method ABAG has been updated and when there is a result return it will be processed immediately without waiting for the time to expire.
