Could anybody tell me about the difference between COMMIT and COMMIT ALL.

Thanks,
Vijayakrishna

Hi,
Commit has two variations, Commit and Commit All. When executed, both statements release all locks and write checkpoints. Commit does not release implicit shared locks and retains currencies, whereas Commit All nullifies currencies.

The COMMIT statement requests CA-IDMS to write a checkpoint to the journal file to designate the start or end
of specific database, scratch, or queue record access activities associated with the issuing run unit or task.
COMMIT simulates a FINISH-BIND-READY sequence without relinquishing control of database resources.

Use of the ALL option, as in COMMIT ALL, sets all currencies to null.
