-
CONNECTWAIT
-
specifies that RSUBMIT statements are executed
synchronously. Synchronous processing means that server
processing must be completed before control is returned to the client session.
-
NOCONNECTWAIT
-
specifies that RSUBMIT statements are executed
asynchronously. Asynchronous processing permits the client
or multiple server processes to execute in parallel. Control is returned to
the client session immediately after an RSUBMIT begins execution to allow
for continued processing in the client session or other server sessions.
The CONNECTWAIT system option specifies
whether remote submits are executed synchronously. The default setting can
be overridden by setting the CONNECTWAIT= option in the SIGNON statement or
in subsequent RSUBMIT statements. The option in the RSUBMIT or SIGNON statement
or command takes precedence over the system option.
If NOCONNECTWAIT is specified, you might also want to
specify the CMACVAR= option in the RSUBMIT statement. Setting CMACVAR= enables
you to learn the status of the current asynchronous RSUBMIT (whether it has
completed or is still in progress).
