ARFC:xxx jobs in SM37

[Becker Stephan (extern)]

Hi Brad,
 
once these jobs have run, you wouldn't see entries in SM58 any more, that's
the formers' purpose as far as I know. I am not sure what happens if they
fail temporarily as you indicate below, my educated guess would be that the
job reschedules itself to run at a later time.
 
If you can reproduce these failed RFCs, I would recommend to have your Basis
guys look at it while you run the test cases, so that they can monitor the
RFC environment while the test is running. Have a look at OSS notes 186475,
139181, and 74141, and related ones.
 
Hth,
Stephan

Stephan,
SM58 in our production system doesn't display anything for today (or any
other day for that matter).
 
Thanks,
Brad

Hi Brad,
 
these are cleanup jobs for stalled RFC sessions. Monitor SM58 and your
general RFC environment.
 
Greetings,
Stephan

I was just informed of some jobs in SM37 in our production system which have
my userid (guilt by association).  For example, today there are 17 jobs
which have a job name similar to "ARFC:9DAA862E102A3A88068200AA".  3 of
these jobs all ran at 09:52, and executed job RSARFCDL (title "Delete ARFC
Entries from Log File").  All 3 of these jobs got a message (BT128) similar
to "Job ARFC:9DAA862E102A3A88068200AA is active. The selected function
cannot be performed".  Based on what I saw in OSS and the WUG archives, it
looks like this job might have something to do with Workflow.  If so, I have
some questions:
 
1) What does the job exactly do in regards to Workflow?
2) How is this job scheduled (why does it have my userid)?
3) Why are there multiple instances of the job starting at the same time?
 
BTW, I'm on 4.0B.
 
Thanks,
Brad
