DISABLE BEGINTRANS
DISABLE BEGINTRANS
The DISABLE BEGINTRANS command suspends transaction processing throughout 
the TMF system. 
Command Syntax
For information on the tokens present in the command and response buffers, see the 
SPI Programming Manual. 
Usage Guidelines
Only super-group users can issue this command. TMF must be started.
The DISABLE BEGINTRANS command suspends transaction processing by 
requesting TMF to disallow new calls to the BEGINTRANSACTION system library 
procedure. 
Transaction processing remains disabled until you issue the ENABLE BEGINTRANS 
command. It remains disabled even if you stop and restart TMF; to re-enable 
transaction processing, you must explicitly issue ENABLE BEGINTRANS. 
If transaction processing is already disabled when you issue DISABLE BEGINTRANS 
command, the ZTMF-ERR-BTDisabled error is returned. 
The START TMF command also contains a ZTransAllowOption field that disables 
transaction processing.

Caution. Suspending transaction processing can cause your transaction processing 
applications to fail; thus, you may have to stop your applications before issuing the DISABLE 
BEGINTRANS command. If you must suspend transaction processing, choose a time when 
the interruption will affect system users the least.
