IMS Synchronous ECCR Restrictions

The following restrictions pertain to the IMS synchronous ECCR:

The IMS synchronous ECCR requires components from the BMC Software CHANGE RECORDING FACILITY, DATABASE INTEGRITY PLUS, or Fast Path Online Restructure/EP product. If you do not have any of these BMC Software products, you can use the hlq.CRG.LOAD library that PowerExchange supplies. The CRG software is based on version 5.1.00 RSL 2101 of the BMC Software products.

The IMS synchronous ECCR does not capture changes made to IMS databases in the following situations:

When you run IMS migration, initialization, reorganization, or recovery utilities

When PROCOPT=L is specified in the program specification block (PSB)

When user data is in secondary indexes

When an update request does not change data in the segment that it updates

The IMS synchronous ECCR does not support change data capture for the following IMS database types:

Hierarchical Sequential Access Method (HSAM) databases

Simple Hierarchical Sequential Access Method (SHSAM) databases

Generalized Sequential Access Method (GSAM) databases

Main Storage databases (MSDBs)

IMS Fast Path sequential dependent (SDEP) segments

Any IMS databases after an XRF failover
