Promon R&D - Processes/Clients status option

Hello All:

I have one query about Promon option output.

While reading from Promon R&D option -> Processes/Clients status , we can see values in 'Wait' column as '- -' but Column 'Wait Info' displays numerical values.

so my query is what does value in 'wait Info' column indicate while 'Wait' is showing blank. I tried to look for this info in OpenEdge documents but could not find anything.

Thank you,
 
Try this in the demo database.

Proserve demo, then open two proenv windows and mpro demo in each and type:
Code:
find first customer exclusive.
update customer.name.

Run both; one gets the x-lock on the record, the other waits. In promon | R&D | 1 | 4 | 1 you see something like this:

Code:
♀03/22/12        Status: All Processes
12:21:26

  Usr Name     Type      Wait            Wait Info  Trans id   Login time

    0 RobF     BROK       --                     0         0  03/22/12 12:11
    5 RobF     SELF/ABL   --                     0        24  03/22/12 12:12
    6 RobF     SELF/ABL  REC                  2113        25  03/22/12 12:13
    7 RobF     MON        --                     0         0  03/22/12 12:21

Enter <return>, R, P, T, or X (? for help):

User 5 is updating the record, and user 6 is waiting for that record to be available. Under Wait Info, you see 2113 in this case, which is the recid of the record that user 6 is waiting to get an exclusive lock on.

In answer to your question, if "Wait" is blank, you aren't waiting, as is the case here for user 5 who is updating the first customer.
 
It is just the "wait info" value from the last time the wait column was not "--".

It is a residual value and not really meaningful to the current state of affairs.
