    Description:
    We are having trouble getting hold requests to go through and are wondering if there is a line limit to tab_hold_request? We have recently added lines to this table and now hold requests won't go through.

    Resolution:
    The check_hold_request program has this line:
    01 TAB-HOLD-REQUEST-MAX-LINES PICTURE 9(9) COMP VALUE 500.
    so the limit is 500 lines.

    [From site:] We found we had to comment out checks I, J and K in the HL-GRP section of tab_hold_request to make holds functional from our Discovery layer / Primo into Aleph.
