Aren't consistency checks a basic part of DB2? Failing conflicting commits is a
type of serialization, although it is far from the only one.

I'm confused. Doesn't a successful commit prevent a future rollback?
Why isn't the scenario:
A: commit succedes
B: commit fails
B: rollback succedes
B: rerunning transaction succedes
B: commit succedes

The problem is not auditors; it is incompetent auditors.
In the Army they taught us that preventing authorized access is a security
violation. An unthinking automatic timeout is a DOS attack when it prevents

I was thinking of zCX as hosting containers
The process for deploying virtual machines in z/VM is different although it
also eliminates manual setup that used to be necessary.
i was trying to illustrated that the automation of deployment was not limited

AFAIK, there no PDSE in CMS OS simulation. I'd have to check the z/VM
documentation to be sure.
That said, I abandoned EXEC and EXEC2 once REXX was available.

How do containers in the cloud differ from containers on the mainframe? How
difficult is it to provision a new z/VM virtual machine with contemporary
software? ow much is just different coverage in the in-flight magazines versus

CDE is irrelevant; an exit from an RB always gets the registers from the
current registers and the exiting RB, and always gets the PSW from the previous
