<h1 class="topictitle1">Atomic operations</h1>
<div><p>When running under COMMIT(*CHG), COMMIT(*CS), or COMMIT(*ALL),
all operations are guaranteed to be atomic.</p>
<div class="section"><p>That is, they will complete or they will appear not to have started.
This is true regardless of when or how the function was ended or interrupted
(such as power failure, abnormal job end, or job cancel).</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>If COMMIT (*NONE) is specified, however, some underlying database
data definition functions are not atomic. The following SQL data definition
statements are guaranteed to be atomic:</p>
<ul><li>ALTER TABLE (See note 1)</li>
<li>COMMENT ON (See note 2)</li>
<li>LABEL ON (See note 2)</li>
<li>GRANT (See note 3)</li>
<li>REVOKE (See note 3)</li>
<li>DROP TABLE (See note 4)</li>
<li>DROP VIEW (See note 4)</li>
<li>DROP INDEX</li>
<li>DROP PACKAGE</li>
<li>REFRESH TABLE </li>
</ul>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Notes:</span> <ol><li>If constraints need to be added or removed, as well as column definitions
changed, the operations are processed one at a time, so the entire SQL statement
is not atomic. The order of operation is: <ul><li>Remove constraints</li>
<li>Drop columns for which the RESTRICT option was specified</li>
<li>All other column definition changes (DROP COLUMN CASCADE, ALTER COLUMN,
ADD COLUMN)</li>
<li>Add constraints</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>If multiple columns are specified for a COMMENT ON or LABEL ON statement,
the columns are processed one at a time, so the entire SQL statement is not
atomic, but the COMMENT ON or LABEL ON to each individual column or object
will be atomic.</li>
<li>If multiple tables, SQL packages, or users are specified for a GRANT or
REVOKE statement, the tables are processed one at a time, so the entire SQL
statement is not atomic, but the GRANT or REVOKE to each individual table
will be atomic.</li>
<li>If dependent views need to be dropped during DROP TABLE or DROP VIEW,
each dependent view is processed one at a time, so the entire SQL statement
is not atomic.</li>
</ol>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>The following data definition statements are not atomic because
they involve more than one database operation:</p>
<ul><li>ALTER PROCEDURE</li>
<li>ALTER SEQUENCE</li>
<li>CREATE ALIAS</li>
<li>CREATE DISTINCT TYPE</li>
<li>CREATE FUNCTION</li>
<li>CREATE INDEX</li>
<li>CREATE PROCEDURE</li>
<li>CREATE SCHEMA</li>
<li>CREATE SEQUENCE</li>
<li>CREATE TABLE</li>
<li>CREATE TRIGGER</li>
<li>CREATE VIEW</li>
<li>DROP ALIAS</li>
<li>DROP DISTINCT TYPE</li>
<li>DROP FUNCTION</li>
<li>DROP PROCEDURE</li>
<li>DROP SCHEMA</li>
<li>DROP SEQUENCE</li>
<li>DROP TRIGGER</li>
<li>RENAME (See note 1)</li>
</ul>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> </div>
<ol><li>RENAME is atomic only if the name or the system name is changed. When
both are changed, the RENAME is not atomic.</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>For example, a CREATE TABLE can be interrupted after the <span class="keyword">DB2<sup>®</sup> UDB for iSeries™</span> physical file has been created,
but before the member has been added. Therefore, in the case of create statements,
if an operation ends abnormally, you may need to drop the object and then
create it again. In the case of a DROP SCHEMA statement, you may need to drop
the schema again or use the CL command Delete Library (DLTLIB) to remove the
remaining parts of the schema.</p>
