Hello,

my scenario is application(a) with a general workstation using an exclusive special resource with option "avail on complete".
After setting the general workstation to complete with the opstat command the special resource is available but other applications(b) are still waiting of the special resource.
The problem occurs only if both applications(a+b) are at the same time in the current plan.
At the special resource monitor the waiting application(b) has the "Reason Wait" OTHRES.

When I add another application(c) using the special resource - this application is running but application b ist still waiting.

Any idea to solve this problem?

Thanks
Manfred

Is that the only OTHer RESource that application b has defined?

Yes!
When I add application b into the CP, after application a is finished, the available resource will be honored and application b is starting.
