DISABLE BEGINTRANS

The DISABLE BEGINTRANS command suspends transaction processing throughout

the TMF system.

Command Syntax

Refer to the SPI Programming Manual for tokens present in the command and

response buffers but not described below.

Usage Guidelines

Only super-group users can issue this command. TMF must be started.

The DISABLE BEGINTRANS command suspends transaction processing by

requesting TMF to disallow new calls to the BEGINTRANSACTION system library

procedure.

Transaction processing remains disabled until you issue the ENABLE BEGINTRANS

command. It remains disabled even if you stop and restart TMF; to reenable

transaction processing, you must explicitly issue ENABLE BEGINTRANS.

If transaction processing is already disabled when you issue DISABLE BEGINTRANS

command, the ZTMF-ERR-BTDISABLED error is returned.

Command

ZTMF-CMD-DISABLE

Object Type

Caution. Suspending transaction processing can cause your transaction processing

applications to fail; thus, you may have to stop your applications before issuing the DISABLE

BEGINTRANS command. If you must suspend transaction processing, choose a time when

the interruption will affect system users the least.
