The application commits by issuing a checkpoint call.
At the time of the checkpoint, three actions take place:
IMS commits all the database updates and releases the
records for the checkpoint
IMS sends a message to the operator containing the ID of the
checkpoint
IMS writes a log record containing checkpoint information,
before and after images of the updated segments and the
checkpoint id.
Until the application issues the checkpoint, all segments which have been updated are ?enqueued? meaning any other programs attempting to access them will be forced to wait. If no checkpoints are taken, the commit will occur when the program completes. |

Hi,
I accord with Mutthu and adding to it
This Checkpoint will allow you to restart the job from the Latest Checkpoint taken instead of starting from the Beginning of the Job incase of abend of your job due to some reason. |
