B21: WRITETHRUXDPERROR
Certain applications abend when an XDP error code (350-499) is returned from an
encryption operation. The WRITETHRUXDPERROR keyword has been added for
Writes (only) so that if an encryption error occurs, the process will receive an error
code of 0 on the Write, and unencrypted data will be written. Warning messages will
be sent to both the EMS collector $0 and the audit file when this happens.
To use this keyword, turn it ON in the DPACL file. The default is OFF if the keyword is
omitted, so that XDP errors will be reported to the application, but unencrypted data
will not be written to the database.
Note:
Your application can encounter unencrypted data if an XDP error occurs with
this keyword set to ON and it can corrupt your database. Use this option with
extreme caution.
Syntax:
WRITETHRUXDPERROR { ON | OFF }
The default is OFF.
