Active Enforcement Exit Processing--Online

If you enter the END command at the Active Enforcement screen, you are returned to the active compiler for further utility processing.

Data dictionary updates are allowed or not allowed based on the template's severity level and the PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE error level specifications (I--Informational, W--Warning, or E--Error). For more information about these specifications, see Environment Utilities Screen.

If the best-fit template's severity level has PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE enabled, dictionary update is aborted. If PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE is not enabled, dictionary update is allowed.

CA IDMS Enforcer directs further CA IDMS utility processing by returning one of these codes:

• 8 —. PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE enabled and the attempted entity name occurrence does not match templates for that entity. *+ E CA IDMS utility message-type is generated for this error level.
• 4 —. PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE disabled and the attempted entity name occurrence does not match templates for that entity. *+ W CA IDMS utility message-type is generated for this error level.
• 1 —. PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE enabled or disabled and enforcement passed due to a subordinate template (other than first). *+ I CA IDMS utility message-type is generated for this error level.
• 0 —. PREVENT DICTIONARY UPDATE enabled or disabled and the attempted entity name occurrence matched the first template encountered. No messages are generated for this error level and CA IDMS utility processing continues.
