Display length limitation of RRN in DSPJOB

[Guest.Visitor]

We have many large files in an application, with more than 10 mil records. When I use the DSPJOB on an active job and try to view the relative record number of certain files, +++++++ appears for the files with > 10 mil records. This seems like a big OS/400 limitation to me, but IBM has been no help in resolving the issue. I want to be able to determine the RRN of all files in an active job at any point in time. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. David Babashanian

Your applications could periodically update a data area, and release the lock. By examining the data area you could then determine each file's RRN. Dave
