    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When multiple transactions are updating *
    *                      records, File Manager record integrity  *
    *                      checking was not detecting update       *

    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    File Manager was not reading a record for update during the
    integrity checking procedure resulting in a failure to warn of
    a record having been updated by another user before performing
    the File Manager update.
    

Problem conclusion

  • File Manager has been updated in order to read the intended
    record to be updated, with update intent, in order to correctly
    synchronise with other updates, before performing the integrity
    check, allowing update collision detection to work as intended.
