Default D3 Phantoms and blocking reads - What constitutes an "error" status? - 08-06-2011 , 11:50 AM






Hello Group:

I have two D3 systems of the same release and patch(es) which are
behaving differently in this manner:

On one system, when I invoke a phantom, where the phantom program is
at a blocking read (it's asking a question at a BASIC input
statement), and there is no stacked data to pass, the phantom will
hang indefinitely.

On the other system, the phantom will log off and log as a status "E"
in the JOBS file. I'm guessing that it sees there is no stacked data,
it knows it's at a prompt and therefore unable to continue.

How is it supposed to behave? Does anyone know if there is a "setting"
of some sort for this? I've tried starting the phantom with z and also
zs.

Thanks in advance.

J
