Is it mandatory for XMITQ to be trigger enabled?
Even if I change XMITQ to NOTRIGGER and start the SDR channel, XMITQ is reverted back to TRIGGER enabled. START CHL() is doing this change. Why is it so? |

Question: why would you want it not to be?
What's your requirement? I imagine (but only imagine) you're trying to schedule traffic across the channel. IMHO you'd be better off sticking the messages on a separate local queue and scheduleing the reading application if that's the case.
Of course I could be hopelessly off track on what you're trying to do and if so I apologise!

Or you can put the channel in a STOPPED state when you don't need it to run.
Then it will only ever start when you start it "manually" (this can be a script that issues a runmqsc or PCF message or etc.).

Clearly stopping the channel works as well; I got the impression he was doing that, but every time he started it the triggering got switched on & this was against his requirement.
You can't trigger a STOPPED channel, can you? My brain's gone mushy...

AFAIK there is no requirement to trigger an XMIT queue. You could always GET disable the transmit queue but frankly I would have expected the NOTRIGGER to work. Are you sure nothing is setting it back to trigger?
If you change the XMITQ while the channel is running I could sort of see why it would get set back if it was triggered in the first place. Have you tried stopping the channel, changing the XMITQ to NOTRIGGER and then restarting the channel (remember to put a discint on it too).
I am a little mystified why you would want to do this though and would love to know the logic behind why you need to do this. It may be that we can think of a better/easier way of doing what you want. |
