For a data or index file that does not use full transaction logging (ctTRNLOG), FairCom Server now flushes updated cache pages and sets the update flag to zero for the file when the last user closes the file and the KEEPOPEN_LIST option keeps the file open.
The configuration option KEEPOPEN_FLUSH NO can be used in ctsrvr.cfg to disable this flushing behavior and revert to the behavior prior to V10.3.1, although this is not recommended.
This is a change from previous behavior: When FairCom Server's KEEPOPEN_LIST configuration option was in effect for a c‑tree data or index file that was not under transaction control, FairCom Server kept that file open after the last user closed the file. Updated data and index cache pages remained and were not written to disk before the call to close the file returned to the caller. This caused unnecessary data integrity risk should the FairCom Server abnormally terminate while the file remained open. The file is likely to fail to open with an FCRP_ERR error, 14, under such scenarios.
