You realise the server rusted away to nothing some years previously, and seek professional help for your delusions.

I think the largest linear log I've ever seen was in 5 figures, and that was just before it got decommissioned because the box was obsolete.
My best serious thought - take effective backups when it starts writing S9999997.log & post what happens here!
If there's any justice IBM would send it a telegram.  _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

No telegram then?
I suspected there was no justice in the world, but couldn't prove it before.
Anyone got any idea (or any formula for calculating) how long it would take to generate that many log files? Clearly dependant on message throughput and log file size, but about how long for an "average" queue manager? _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

When you first creare a LL qmgr, S0000000.LOG is created, so "I think" it'd wrap to that . _________________ -wayne |
