FairCom RTG Transaction Support

FairCom RTG supports complete transaction processing for your existing COBOL applications. Of the three levels of transaction processing supported by the underlying FairCom DB technology, FairCom RTG creates files using our middle level of transaction processing known as "Prelmage". This means it is transaction-ready and supports ROLLBACK out-of-the-box without recovery. This is compatible with most existing COBOL platforms.

This concept guide explains FairCom RTG transaction handling and how you can fine tune it for the best possible performance.

In this guide:

* Why you should want transaction control:

* How to enable transaction control

* Switching transaction modes

* Automatic recovery

* Transaction control and performance

* Transaction log files and best practices
