Increasing the number of threads solved the problem. Thanks Sharon!

Mayad,
This is probably because your STAX service is configured to use a
maximum of 5 physical threads (which is the default). You can check
this by listing the settings for your STAX service and checking the
value of the "Number of Threads" setting. For example:
C:\>STAF local STAX LIST SETTINGS
Response
--------
{
Event Machine : local
Event Service Name : Event
Number of Threads : 5
Process Timeout : 60000
File Caching : Enabled
Max File Cache Size : 20
...
}
You can increase this setting by specifying the NUMTHREADS parameter
when registering the STAX service as talked about in section
"Installation and Configuration", sub-section "STAX Service Machine" in
the STAX User's Guide at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAX/staxug.html#Header_StaxServiceM
ach. For example, to increase the number of physical threads that the
STAX service can use to 10:
SERVICE STAX LIBRARY JSTAF EXECUTE
{STAF/Config/STAFRoot}/services/stax/STAX.jar \
PARMS "NUMTHREADS 10"
Note you'll have to shutdown STAFProc and restart STAFProc for it to
read the updated STAF.cfg file. Or you can unregister and re-register
the STAX service dynamically using the STAF SERVICE service's REMOVE
SERVICE and ADD SERVICE requests.

[staf-users] STAX jobs concurrently waiting for for queue messages
Hi all,
I have six static handles and I have six STAX jobs. Each STAX job
submits a "QUEUE GET WAIT" request to a different handle. For some
reason, I can only have five of those jobs running at a time, the sixth
job would not start until I terminate one of the other five. Is there a
reason for this? Is there a way around it?
Thanks,
Mayad-------------------------------------------------------------------
