Use this procedure to hold any journal entries for an object identified by a tracking entry. Avoid leaving a tracking entry on hold for any extended period.
The request changes the tracking entry status to *HLD. Any journal entries for the associated IFS object, data area, or data queue are replicated but not applied. MIMIX retains log spaces containing any replicated journal entries in anticipation that the tracking entry will be released. When the tracking entry is released, the accumulated journal entries will be applied. The *HLD status remains until additional action is taken.
Do the following:
Access the IFS or object tracking entry display as described in Accessing the appropriate tracking entry display.
Type 23 (Hold) next to the tracking entry for the object you want and press Enter.
