|
|
<div><p>A transaction is a group of changes that appear as a single change,
|
|
such as the transfer of funds from a savings account to a checking account. </p>
|
|
<p>Transactions can be classified into the following categories:</p>
|
|
<div class="p"> <ul><li>Inquiries in which no file changes occur.</li>
|
|
<li>Simple transactions in which one file is changed each time you press the
|
|
Enter key.</li>
|
|
<li>Complex transactions in which two or more files are changed each time
|
|
you press the Enter key.</li>
|
|
<li>Complex transactions in which one or more files are changed each time
|
|
you press the Enter key. These changes represent only part of a logical group
|
|
of transactions.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Revisions made to files during transaction processing are journaled when
|
|
using commitment control.</p>
|
|
<p>If the system or job ends abnormally, journaling alone can ensure that,
|
|
at most, only the very last record change is lost. However, if the system
|
|
or job ends abnormally during a complex transaction, the files reflect an
|
|
incomplete logical transaction. For example, the job might have updated a
|
|
record in file A, but before it updates a corresponding record in file B,
|
|
the job ended abnormally. In this case, the logical transaction consists of
|
|
two updates, but only one update had completed before the job
|
|
ended abnormally.</p>
