Changes to the IAUPABND Option in the EDMSDIR Module
The IAUPABND option in the EDMSDIR options module for the PowerExchange Agent has been extended to apply to batch DL/I jobs:
IAUPABND={
Y
|N}
Controls the behavior of IMS online update transactions and online batch jobs in an IMS control region when the CCERR=ABEND option is specified and the PowerExchange Logger for z/OS ends abnormally after the IMS control region is running. This option also controls the behavior of IMS batch DL/I jobs when the PowerExchange Logger is not available when the job starts. The option has the following effects:
In the online environment, this option does not affect transactions that access the database in read-only mode.
In the batch DL/I environment, this option does not affect jobs that use PSBs that do not update any database.
In all environments, this option has no effect when CCERR=CONT is specified.
If the PowerExchange Logger is down when you try to start the IMS control region, this option is ignored and control region startup fails.
Valid values are:
Y
. In an online environment, all update transactions and online batch jobs abend. In a batch DL/I environment, the batch job abends.
N
. In an online environment, only the transactions and online batch jobs that update registered source segments abend. In a batch DL/I environment, only the batch DL/I jobs that update registered source segments abend.
Default is Y.
