Request Comparison Checking on a MOVE_ENTRYLIST Request

z/OS MVS Programming: Sysplex Services Guide
SA23-1400-00

Comparison checking that can be done prior to moving a list entry can be one or more of the following:
  • List authority
  • Lock operation

In order for any list entries to be moved, the list authority comparison and the lock operation, if either or both are requested, must succeed. If during the processing of the first list entry, the list authority comparison or lock operation fails, the IXLLSTM request is terminated. If the authority comparison or lock operation fails during processing of a subsequent entry after the first, the request will time out and can be restarted. See Handling an Incompletely Processed MOVE_ENTRYLIST for information about restarting a MOVE_ENTRYLIST request.

Additional comparison checking that can be done prior to processing each list entry can be one or more of the following:
  • Version number comparison with optional version number replacement
  • List number comparison
  • Key comparison (both entry key and secondary key)

In order for a particular list entry to be moved, the version number comparison, list number comparison, and key comparison, if requested, must succeed. If any of the comparisons fails, and MISCOMPARE=HALT was specified, the IXLLSTM request is terminated. If MISCOMPARE=CONTINUE was specified or defaulted to, processing of the current list entry is terminated and processing continues with the next entry.
