CICS transaction ends with Deadlock

HI All,

One of our CICS transcaction has failed with dead lock, On analysis we could see that one of the batch program which run every 5 mins is causing the transcation to end in Deadlock

Both the transcaction and batch is using the same db2table to update.

and explain what the transaction does.

Hello,

Is this resolved?

The problem is a design issue. One of the processes locks resource A and then tries to lock resource B. At the same time, another process locks resource B and then tries to lock resource A. It may not be trivial to change/correct, but the transactions should lock resources in the same order.
