THE IMPORTANCE OF HOUSE KEEPING

the importance of keeping house

In my blog in November of last year I asked, “How reliant is your Company on EDI?” I have 2 further questions for you.

What would happen if you were trying to get month end through and your system just stopped?
What about those time critical orders? What would happen if your EDI system couldn’t process them?

This week, one of our TrustedLink iSeries (TLI) support consultants made the comment that she had come across 6 companies in 1 week who had problems after not regularly running a purge.

If you want to avoid that dreaded IBM message: ‘Maximum numbers of objects reached,’ which is an OS/400 restriction, then devote a little time to setting up the concurrent purge now available in TLi V6.3

Gwyn Madsen posted a blog in November last year promoting additional functionality in the latest version of TrustedLink iSeries (TLi) V6.3.
Improved TLi Data and Object Management
- Run 24/7, 365 days a year without interruption as the purge/archive process can now be executed concurrently with normal TLi operations running.
- Communication Session Retention Settings & IFS Purge inclusion

So there are no excuses; run a purge today to stop problems in the future.
