<h1 class="topictitle1">Data area locking and allocation</h1>
<div><p>Locking and allocating a data area helps to ensure that the data
area is not accessed by more than one job at a time.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>The <span class="cmdname">Change Data Area (CHGDTAARA)</span> command uses
a *SHRUPD (shared for update) lock on the data area during command processing.
The <span class="cmdname">Retrieve Data Area (RTVDTAARA)</span> and <span class="cmdname">Display
Data Area (DSPDTAARA)</span> commands use a *SHRRD (shared for read) lock
on the data area during command processing. If you are performing more than
one operation on a data area, you may want to use the <span class="cmdname">Allocate Object
(ALCOBJ)</span> command to prevent other users from accessing the data
area until your operations are completed. For example, if the data area contains
a value that is read and incremented by jobs running at the same time, the
ALCOBJ command can be used to protect the value in both the read and update
operations.</p>
<p>For information on handling data areas in other
(non-CL) languages, refer to the appropriate HLL reference manual.</p>
