Abnormal Termination

VSAM Error Codes

Any error that occurs in CA IDMS VSAM Transparency is translated into a VSAM error code and is returned to the application.

Considerations

The following considerations apply to the abnormal termination of an CA IDMS VSAM Transparency application program:

• For a CICS transaction, all CA IDMS VSAM Transparency updates are rolled back to a point before the CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files were processed.
• Under central version, all recovery is handled automatically by CA IDMS/DB recovery procedures.
• In local mode, the database that contains the CA IDMS VSAM Transparency files must be restored manually.
