As far as I am aware, this was brought in to play in 7.6.5.

This was not supported when XFOCUS was first introduced.

Thanks Alan thant sounds hopeful for my 768 then.
Question regarding SET COMMIT=ON in edasprof.
I tried to add that but the agent abended immediatelly.
Should it be there only when SUFFIX=FOC and/or SUFFIX=XFOCUS?

I'm here... I'm here.

You really cannot use SUFFIX=XFOCUS with Maintain. I say it that way because A LOT of the time it does work, but it has never been certified. If possible, ALWAYS use SUFFIX=FOCUS with Maintain. As for SU, there was a very good discussion here that I keep bookmarked. Find it at:

That has all the steps you need to make sure SU works in 7.6.

Thanks for clarification Mark. I am sure I have used it, but maybe not in anger.

Now the million dollar question. When will XFOCUS be certified with Maintain and SU?

We are investigating getting this in 8.0. I am told it may require a complete re-write of the way Maintain works with SU, so it is no small task.
