Mode
The SEND statement is executed after a SCREEN COBOL program has issued a BEGIN-TRANSACTION statement, but
before the program has issued an END-TRANSACTION or an ABORT TRANSACTION statement. Note that a program
is considered to be in transaction mode if it executes a BEGIN-TRANSACTION statement.
These are PATHCOM command parameter settings for normal TMF and Pathway operations; SET SERVER TMF ON must be set
within PATHCOM.
Although no TRANSACTION-ID was present, PATHMON has allowed the SEND statement. If the server attempts a a file lock or
update operation on an audited file, a Guardian file error 75 will be returned to the server. How this information is
TMF mode violation: the error is returned in the SCREEN COBOL TERMINATION-STATUS special register.
These are PATHCOM command parameter settings for special program testing. This is a convenient way to partially test or
debug a SCREEN COBOL program on a system that does not yet have TMF configured. The program will execute, but all
SEND requests to audited files will receive Guardian file error 75 replies.
These are PATHCOM command parameter settings for normal Pathway operations without TMF.
