TMFCOM Commands

STATUS TRANSACTIONS
BYSTARTTIME
sorts the transactions by transaction start time.
BYBACKOUT
sorts aborting transactions or aborted transactions by the name of the
backout process handling the transaction.
DESC
sorts the field in descending order.
If you specify multiple SORT options, the order in which the options are specified
determines the output order. For example, the command STATUS
TRANSACTIONS, DETAIL, SORT (BYSTATE, BYSTARTIME) sorts the
transactions first by state, and then by start time.
In any specific STATUS TRANSACTIONS command, you can specify a particular
sort-option (for example, BYSTATE or BYTRANSID) only once.
If you specify BRIEF in a STATUS TRANSACTIONS command, only the
BYTRANSID and BYSTARTIME sorting options have effect; TMF ignores the other
sorting options.
If you omit the SORT parameter altogether, TMF sorts the display by transaction
identifier.
If STATUS TRANSACTIONS is entered without any parameter list, the display includes
all transactions currently defined in the system (including committed distributed
transactions that have not been fully resolved on all nodes concerned).
Security Restrictions
Anyone can enter the STATUS TRANSACTIONS command.
TMF State Requirement
Before you can enter the STATUS TRANSACTIONS command, TMF must be started.
Usage Guidelines
The following usage guidelines apply to the STATUS TRANSACTION command.
General Guidelines
Transactions can be selected on the basis of transaction identifier, process name,
process ID, or transaction state. In addition, the transactions can be sorted by
transaction identifier, process handle, state, start-time, and associated backout
process. Both summarized and detailed information can also be displayed for each
transaction.
