Normal Termination

Batch Application

For a batch application, all CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files are accessed through a single run unit. When the application terminates normally or closes all CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files, CA IDMS VSAM Transparency finishes the run unit. Normal completion of a transaction results in updates being committed to the database.

Note: If the same job subsequently opens any CA IDMS VSAM Transparency file, a new run unit will begin.

CICS Processing

Under CICS, each transaction accesses all CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files through its own run unit. When the transaction terminates normally or closes all CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files, CA IDMS VSAM Transparency finishes the run unit. Normal completion of a transaction results in updates being committed to the database.
