Add warning message when displaying Resource Dependencies in Advanced Job Scheduler this function will cause the scheduler of go into LCKW

We had an occasion whereby the scheduler 'paused' for a few minutes. It seems that whilst I was displaying the Resource Dependencies in an Advanced Job Scheduler job, it caused the QIJSSCD to go into LCKW, basically stopping the scheduler.

Perhaps as minimum there should be a warning message or the function be re-engineered so it doesn't cause the whole scheduler to stop.

    Thanks for your input. This particular situation may do well to be worked through support. Have you already worked with support on this issue?
