RESET AREA=CXX Processing

In Simplify mode, the RESET AREA=CXX is not needed and not allowed to execute. Without Simplify mode, in processing a reset for the CXX DBUTLTY attempts to connect to the MUF. If successful, the MUF is called to verify the base being reset is not open for update. If the base is open for update, the message DB13111E (see the CA Datacom/DB Message Reference Guide) is printed and the reset is rejected. If MUF is not enabled or cannot be checked for any reason, the reset continues.

This function communicates with one MUF. Be aware of the following:

• Ensure that DBUTLTY is communicating with the desired MUF by executing DBUTLTY with the same System Identifier module (DBSIDPR) that is being used by the MUF, and
• Ensure proper load library concatenation by keeping the System Identifier modules (DBSIDPR) in separate load libraries.

If the z/OS Cross-System Coupling Facility (XCF) is being used, ensure that the TOGROUP DBSIDPR parameter is correctly defined. See the CA Datacom/DB Database and System Administration Guide for more information on XCF.
