What Are Update Commits?

During a model update, commit points are places at which changes to the model are applied and stored in the database. Commits free DB2 table locks and reduce Host Encyclopedia contention. The UPDATE.TRN file communicates commit points to the Host Encyclopedia.

If a model update fails, database updates are rolled back to the last successful commit. If the unsuccessful model update is resent, commits for the resend begin after the last successful commit. If you have difficulty with the model upload or download, contact Customer Support.
