Messages during updates

During updates, the behavior of messages depends on the work process:

• During update in an update work process (synchronous and asynchronous updates), all messages apart from type "S" lead to a termination of the update. The update work process performs a database rollback, resets the system log record with a note to the database table VBLOG, and notifies the user whose program generated the system log record by e-mail.

• During local updates, all messages apart from type "S" and "X" are converted to messages of type "A" and these behave in the same way as in dialog processing, which means they lead to a termination and a database rollback. Messages of type "S" and "X" are also handled in the same way as in dialog processing.

Note

In exceptional cases, the work process may be connected to a dialog (for example during Debugging). In this case, messages behave in the same way as for local updates.
