  • What causes this issue?

    The cache repeatedly attempts to set an enqueue so that it can work with
    a cache entry. If a process cannot set the enqueue after many repeated
    attempts (up to 1000 attempts, for example), the system assumes that
    there is a problem. To highlight the problem and avoid inconsistencies,
    the cache terminates the current process with an error message (x
    message). A system administrator can reduce the number of attempts to a
    number for which it is quite likely that an enqueue can be set. To allow
    the process, that is, the query, to continue to run, you can use this
    parameter to specify that the process is not to terminate when an error
    message is issued.
    This parameter only applies to the cache modes cluster table, BLOB
    table, and flat files (both application server dependent and cross
    application server).

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
