Inter-CV-Interest

Inter-CV-interest denotes a state in which an area is being shared by:

• At least one group member with an area status of UPDATE, and
• More than one group member with an area status of RETRIEVAL or UPDATE. Members accessing an area in TRANSIENT RETRIEVAL, have no impact on inter-CV-interest.

Conflict for the area (and the records and pages in the area) can only occur if there is inter-CV-interest in the area. This is significant because if there is no inter-CV-interest in an area, the overhead associated with controlling access to it is reduced.

Whether there is inter-CV-interest in an area is indicated on the output from a DCMT DISPLAY AREA command.
