The transparency's runtime interface does not support Total DML functions that are inappropriate in a CA IDMS/DB database environment. Information about unsupported functions is provided in the following table.

ENDTO MARK1 RQLOC (CICS) RSTAT WRITD

These statements are related to recovery and logging. The runtime system returns an error for all of these statements. You can alter programs containing these statements in either of the following ways:
Additionally, the logging options parameter of the SINON command and the **REST** parameter in Total DML commands are supported for retrieval only. When updating the database, these parameters are ignored. The **REST** parameter can be used in Total retrieval DML to indicate that the entire physical record (as defined in the DBMOD) is to be used, rather than just an element list of the record. |

SKIP option of Total RDNXT and FINDX (for skipping unused records) |

Some OPENX options |
OPENX options that allow the user to ready Total files residing in the same area in different usage modes. The CA IDMS/DB database is readied for processing at the area level and each area can contain multiple record types. All CA IDMS/DB record types within a given area are accessed in the same usage mode. This approach differs from that of the Total Database Management System, which readies the database at the file level. Since each Total file contains records of only one type, each Total record type can be accessed in a different usage mode. |

Some ADDV statements |
ADDV statements issued for a coded variable record for which a record code and coded linkpath field were not defined in Total DDL. To override this restriction, you must modify the Total DDL used to generate the runtime control table prior to submitting the Total DDL to the transparency generator (see Step 2—Prepare Total DDL Statements). Do the following to define the coded variable file as a standard variable file: 1. Delete the Total DDL statement that defines the overlay element for the coded file 2. Define as a group item the data item designated as the overlay element for the coded file; the group item replacing the overlay element should reference all data items following the deleted statement |
