The use of Volatile really (in my opinion) deals more with DB2 Data Sharing than anything else. If you set the CF to Volatile YES - the DB2 Data Sharing Regions put out a message
DSN7507I :DSNQ DSN7LSTK 737 SCA STRUCTURE DSNSB0Q_SCA IS ALLOCATED IN A VOLATILE STRUCTURE. This makes my DB2 guys crazy. So we are switching our CF to NON-Volatile just to take away the messages. To us, the difference was a phone call at 2am in the morning. ;-) Even though the CF is backed up by a UPS and that is what we cared about; just not the DB2 Data Sharing Regions.
