Research direction
Start by locating the IBM BB poststage script and prestage script #2 referenced in the issue, then trace how the SCR index is updated. Determine which checkpoint or output sets need cache flushing and how transfer completion is checked. Done means transfers complete successfully, allocation is released, and the SCR index allows the next job to start.
