                 EDIT DESCRIPTIONS FOR DBMS-10-V5A                              
  
  
                             EDIT 521    FOR DBMS
  
;SYMPTOM:
; 
;	WHEN A MEMBER RECORD IN A SET OCCURRENCE HAS BINARY ZEROES IN
;	ITS SET POINTERS, FIND NEXT AND FIND PRIOR GET INTO AN INFINITE
;	LOOP.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS:
; 
;	FIND RSE 3 IS NOT EXPECTING CORRUPT DBKEYS IN THE SET POINTERS,
;	SO WHEN IT SEES ZEROES IN THE PARTICULAR SET POINTERS, IT THINKS
;	THAT SOME OTHER CONCURRENT RUN-UNIT IS WORKING WITH THIS RECORD.
;	IN ORDER TO GUARD AGAINST THIS POSSIBILITY, IT DEFINES A
;	CANONICAL NEXT OF SET, WHICH IS TYPICALLY THE RECORD WHICH IT IS
;	CURRENTLY WORKING WITH. THUS, IN THE CORRUPT SITUATION, IT
;	RE-FINDS THAT RECORD AND LOOPS INFINITELY. WHEN DBCS HAS FOUND
;	A RECORD, IT DOES NOT SPOT-CHECK THE SET POINTERS WHICH IT
;	CONTAINS FOR BINARY ZEROES.
; 
;	HOWEVER, IF CORRUPT SET POINTERS ARE NON-ZERO, THIS FACT WILL
;	BE CAUGHT UNDER THE XX22 ERROR-STATUS CODE BECAUSE THIS TYPE
;	OF CURRUPT SET POINTER WILL POINT OFF TO AN AREA OR DATA BASE
;	PAGE OR RECORD WHICH IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE WITHIN DEFINITION
;	FOR THE RECORD TYPE IN THE SCHEMA, OR WILL POINT OFF TO SOME
;	DATA BASE PAGE WHICH IS NOT DEFINED FOR AN AREA.
; 
;	ALSO, IF AN OWNER RECORD CONTAINS BINARY ZEROES IN ITS SET
;	POINTERS THIS IS ALSO ALREADY REPORTED UNDER ERROR-STATUS XX22.
; 
;CURE:
; 
;	INSTALL EDIT 521 FOR DBMS-10/20 V5A, WHICH WILL SPOT-CHECK
;	SET POINTERS FOR THE PARTICULAR SET IN THE RECORD FOR BINARY
;	ZEROES. IF IT FINDS SUCH, IT WILL ISSUE AN ERROR-STATUS CODE
;	OF 0356.

                             EDIT 524    FOR DBMS
  
;SYMPTOM
; 
;	(411)
;	USING SCHEMAS CONTAINING DDL USING INTERSPERSED "AREA NAME",
;	"RECORD NAME" AND "SET NAME" SYNTAX, DBINFO MAY FAIL WITH
;	THE MESSAGE "?INFSAF -- SCHEMA ACCESS FAILURE".
; 
;	(451)
;	WITH EDITS 411 AND 412 INSTALLED, THE DBINFO FUNCTIONS
;	/DISPLAY DATA:"SET-NAME" AND /DISPLAY USAGE:"SET-NAME" MAY
;	REPORT NO DATA WHEN APPROPRIATE DATA EXISTS ON THE DBMS
;	DATA BASE.
; 
; 
;DIAGNOSIS
; 
;	(411)
;	DBINFO DOES NOT BIND SUCH SCHEMAS PROPERLY BECAUSE THE
;	INTERNAL NAME-ID'S FOR THE USER-DEFINED SYMBOLS IN THE
;	SCHEMA GET OUT OF SEQUENCE WITH THE TID'S ASSIGNED FOR
;	USER'S RECORD TYPES. THIS IS REALLY A SCHEMA PROBLEM, AS
;	THE SCHEMA PROCESSOR MAY INADVERTENTLY OVERLAP AN IN-CORE
;	WORK AREA FOR PROCESSING RECORD TYPES AND SET TYPES. HOW-
;	EVER, COBOL PROGRAMS USING SUCH SCHEMAS BIND AND EXECUTE
;	PROPERLY. COBOL DOES THE BIND IN TWO STAGES. FIRST, AT
;	COMPILE TIME IT FOLLOWS THE LINKED LIST OF RECORD-TYPES
;	IN THE .SCH FILE WHEN IT IS CREATING THE BIND STATEMENTS.
;	AS A RESULT, THE NAME-ID'S FOR THE VARIOUS DATA-NAMES ARE
;	IN ASCENDING ORDER ALTHOUGH THE BIND STATEMENTS MAY NOT
;	BE IN ORDER AS DEFINED IN THE SCHEMA. AT RUN-TIME DBCS
;	EXPECTS THE NAME-ID'S TO BE IN ORDER, AND USES THE TID'S
;	TO CREATE A TABLE OF REFERENCES TO THE RECORD TYPES IN
;	THE IN-CORE DATA BASE. ON THE OTHER HAND, DBINFO TRIES THE
;	SAME THING IN ONE PASS, BUT IT IS NOT SMART ENOUGH TO
;	SHUFFLE THE RECORD TYPES IN THE SAME WAY. AS A RESULT,
;	THE NAME-ID'S GET OUT OF SEQUENCE AS DBINFO ATTEMPTS TO
;	BIND THE RECORD TYPES IN SUCCESSION.
; 
;	IT WAS DECIDED NOT TO FIX THE PROBLEM IN SCHEMA BECAUSE
;	OF THE FACT THAT IT CAUSES NO PROBLEMS FOR COBOL (OR FOR
;	FORTRAN). AS A RESULT, DBINFO IS BEING MODIFIED IN
;	ORDER TO CONTAIN THE PROBLEM AT THE POINT WHERE AN EDIT
;	WILL HAVE THE FEWEST POTENTIAL REPERCUSSIONS.
; 
;	(451)
;	AFTER EDIT 411 IS THROUGH SHUFFLING THE RECORD LIST FOR THE
;	SUB-SCHEMA BINDING PROCESS IN DBINFO, IT FAILS TO CLEAR THE
;	LEFT HALF OF THE WORD FOR THE AFFECTED MEMBERS OF THIS LIST.
;	THESE TWO DBINFO FUNCTIONS USE THE ENTRIES OF THIS LIST IN
;	ORDER TO SEE IF THE CURRENT DATA BASE RECORD IS AN OWNER OF
;	THE SPECIFIED SET TYPE. IF THE LEFT HALF OF THE ENTRY IN
;	THE RECORD LIST IS NOT CLEARED, THE COMPARISON WILL FAIL
;	WHEN IT SHOULD PASS.
; 
;CURE
; 
;	INSTALL EDIT 524, CAUSING DBINFO TO RETAIN INFORMATION
;	IN ITS IN-CORE TABLE OF REFERENCES AS TO WHAT ORDER THE
;	RECORD TYPES SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN. THE ORIGINAL ENTRIES
;	ARE A SERIES OF HALF-WORD ADDRESSES IN THE RIGHT HALF OF
;	EACH WORD, AND THE LEFT HALF OF EACH REMAINS AT 0 FOR
;	THE ENTIRE RUN OF DBINFO. IT IS THE LEFT HALF OF THESE
;	WORDS WHICH ARE BEING USED FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS EDIT.
; 
;	(451)
;	ALSO, WHEN THE WORK OF EDIT 411 IS COMPLETE, CLEAR THOSE
;	LEFT HALF-WORDS.
; 
; 
;WARNINGS
; 
;	WHEN THIS EDIT IS INSTALLED INTO DBINFO, ITS "DISPLAY
;	DATA" FUNCTION STILL WILL NOT KNOW WHERE TO LOOK IN THE
;	IN-CORE DATA BASE FOR THE INFORMATION ON RECORD TYPES
;	WHICH ARE OUT OF ORDER, AND IT WILL PRODUCE THE MESSAGE
;	"?INFDAF -- DATA BASE ACCESS FAILURE". IN ORDER TO CLEAR
;	THIS PROBLEM, YOU MUST INSTALL EDIT 525.
; 
;	EDITS 524 AND 525 ARE INTENDED TO FIX A VERY SPECIALIZED
;	PROBLEM AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, AND YOU NEED NOT INSTALL THEM
;	UNLESS YOU CONSTRUCT YOUR SCHEMA DDL IN THE UNUSUAL FASH-
;	ION AS INDICATED UNDER "SYMPTOM" ABOVE AND YOU ARE EXPER-
;	IENCING THIS PROBLEM.
; 
;	ALSO, WHEN THE "DISPLAY MAP" FUNCTION IS USED, DBINFO WILL
;	PUT THE LISTINGS FOR THE RECORD TYPES WHICH ARE OUT OF
;	ORDER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE "MAP" REPORT. THE CONTENTS OF
;	THESE LISTINGS WILL BE ACCURATE. IT WAS DECIDED NOT TO
;	FIX THIS PROBLEM AT THIS TIME, AS IT WOULD HAVE REQUIRED
;	A MAJOR RE-WRITE OF THE "MAP" FUNCTION IN ORDER TO OVER-
;	COME WHAT AMOUNTS TO A MINOR INCONVENIENCE FOR THE USER.
; 
;	FINALLY, DO NOT INSTALL THIS EDIT UNTIL AFTER YOU HAVE INSTALLED
;	EDIT 522 FOR DBMS-20 OR EDIT 523 FOR DBMS-10.

                             EDIT 534    FOR DBMS
  
;SYMPTOM:
; 
;	AFTER DOING A /MERGE OPERATION IN DBMEND-10 TO REMOVE AN
;	INCOMPLETE TRANSACTION THEN UNLOADING THE JOURNAL WITH THE
;	/UNLOAD COMMAND, ANY SUBSEQUENT RUN-UNIT UNDER DBCS TRYING
;	TO RE-USE THE JOURNAL WOULD SOMETIMES FAIL ON AN OPEN WITH
;	AN ERROR-STATUS CODE OF 0962.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS:
; 
;	THE 0962 ERROR-STATUS CODE WAS REPORTED IF DBMS-10'S
;	JOURNAL-IN-UNDEFINED-STATUS WORD WAS SET IN THE JOURNAL
;	LABEL PAGE OF A DISK JOURNAL. THIS WORD WAS SET BY /MERGE
;	IN ORDER TO SIGNIFY THAT IT WAS CURRENTLY WORKING WITH THE
;	JOURNAL IN ORDER TO RECOVER THE DATA BASE. IT SHOULD BE
;	CLEARED BY /UNLOAD ON THE COMPLETION OF A SUCCESSFUL MERGE
;	IN ORDER TO INDICATE THAT THIS JOURNAL IS NO LONGER ACTIVELY
;	INVOLVED IN RESTORING THE DATA BASE AND IS NOW AVAILABLE
;	FOR FURTHER WORK UNDER RUN-UNITS USING DBCS.
;	THIS SYMPTOM IS ESPECIALLY TROUBLESOME IN CASES WHERE
;	SIMULTANEOUS USERS WISH TO SHARE A PRE-ALLOCATED AND
;	TRUNCATED JOURNAL AFTER IT HAS BEEN USED BY DBMEND-10 IN
;	ORDER TO BACK OUT A PREVIOUS INCOMPLETE TRANSACTION.
;	DBMEND-20 HANDLES THIS PROCEDURE DIFFERENTLY.
; 
;CURE:
; 
;	INSTALL EDIT 534 TO CAUSE DBMEND-10 /UNLOAD TO CLEAR THE

;	FUL /MERGE. THIS EDIT USES BIT 0 IN THE RIGHT HALF OF
;	DBMEND'S STATUS REGISTER IN ORDER TO CONVEY INFORMATION
;	ABOUT THE JOURNAL STATE FROM /MERGE TO /UNLOAD. IF THIS
;	BIT IS SET COMING INTO THE THE EXECUTION OF /UNLOAD, IT
;	WILL CLEAR IT AND GIVE THE MESSAGE "?MNDPIF JOURNAL'S
;	LABEL PAGE HAS IMPROPER FORMAT". THIS BIT IS NOT OTHER-
;	WISE USED BY DBMEND-10 AND IS NOT DEFINED TO IT. A SUB-
;	SEQUENT /UNLOAD WILL UNLOAD THE DISK JOURNAL, CLEARING
;	THE JOURNAL-IN-UNDEFINED-STATE WORD. IN THIS WAY THE USER
;	WILL BE RELIEVED OF THE DISTRESSING PROBLEM OF HAVING HIS
;	JOURNAL LABEL IN AN UNDEFINED STATE WHEN HE EXITS FROM

;SYMPTOM
; 
;	IF ORDER IS SORTED DUPLICATES ARE FIRST/LAST/UNSPECIFIED
;	ALLOWED IS SPECIFIED IN THE ORDER CLAUSE OF A SET TYPE
;	WHICH HAS MEMBERSHIP CONSISTING OF MULTIPLE MEMBER REC-
;	ORD TYPES, ENTER MACRO FINS6 WILL NOT NECESSARILY RE-
;	TRIEVE THE PROPER MEMBER RECORD TYPE WHEN A MATCH IS
;	FOUND ON THE USER-SUPPLIED SORT KEY VALUE.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS
; 
;	FOR A SET OCCURRENCE WITH ORDER SORTED DUPLICATES ...
;	AS SPECIFIED ABOVE, FINS6 FAILS TO CHECK THE RECORD
;	TYPE OF THE MEMBER RECORD WHEN A USER KEY MATCH IS
;	FOUND BECAUSE THE INTERNAL RECORD TYPE ID IS NOT PART
;	OF THE SORT KEY FOR THE SET TYPE. THIS PROBLEM APPLIES
;	FOR RANGE KEY MATCHES AS WELL AS FOR EXACT KEY VALUE
;	MATCHES. FINS6 WORKS APPROPRIATELY FOR ALL OTHER TYPES
;	ORDER SORTED WITH EITHER EXACT OR RANGE KEY MATCHES.
; 
;CURE
; 
;	SINCE FINS6 REQUIRES THE USER TO SUPPLY A RECORD NAME
;	AS A "USING" PARAMETER AS WELL AS A SET NAME, IT AP-
;	PEARS ONLY PROPER THAT IT SHOULD CHECK FOR RECORD TYPE
;	AS WELL AS USER KEY VALUE. INSTALL EDIT NO. 540 IN
;	ORDER TO MAKE IT DO THIS EXTRA CHECKING FOR ORDER
;	SORTED DUPLICATES.
; 
;	THIS LARGE AND COMPLEX PATCH AFFECTS RETRIEVAL THRU
;	FINS6 ON THE FOURTH OF THE FOUR MAJOR TYPES OF SORTED
;	SETS, WHICH MAY NOT NECESSARILY BE USED AT ALL SITES. IT
;	IS COMPLEX BECAUSE CHECKING MUST BE DONE FOR RANGE KEY
;	MATCHES AS WELL AS FOR EXACT KEY MATCHES. FOR RANGE KEY
;	MATCHES, WE HAVE TAKEN THE INTERPRETATION THAT A RANGE
;	MATCH EXISTS ONLY IF TWO CONDITIONS EXIST. THE FIRST IS
;	AS SPECIFIED IN THE DBMS VER 5 ADMINISTRATOR'S MANUALS
;	FOR RANGE KEY MATCHES ON PAGE 4-21 TECHNICAL NOTES 8 AND
;	9 AND ON PAGE 4-23 TECHNICAL NOTE 9. HOWEVER, THE LIST
;	OF CONDITIONS GIVEN IN NOTE 9 ON PAGE 4-23 APPLIES TO
;	BOTH MODES OF SET OCCURRENCE SELECTION -- CURRENT OF SET
;	AS WELL AS LOCATION MODE OF OWNER. THE OTHER FORMS OF
;	ORDER SORTED WHERE DUPLICATES ARE ALLOWED CURRENTLY
;	ADHERE TO THIS INTERPRETATION. THE SECOND IS THAT
;	THE INTERNAL TYPE ID OF THE FOUND RECORD MUST MATCH THE
;	RECORD TYPE SPECIFIED BY THE USER AS THE "RECORD NAME"
;	PARAMETER SUPPLIED TO FINS6 UNDER ORDER SORTED DUPLICATES.

;SYMPTOM
; 
;	WHEN USING FORDML IN /UNFLAGGED MODE, LOWER-CASE STRINGS
;	ARE REPLACED BY UPPER-CASE STRINGS EVEN IN FORMAT AND DATA
;	STATEMENTS.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS
; 
;	WITH UNFLAGGED MODE, FORDML MUST CHECK EVERY LINE OF THE
;	INPUT TEXT TO SEE IF IT TERMINATES WITH A PERIOD (.), AND
;	IS THUS A DML STATEMENT. WHEN DOING SO, IT ALTERS
;	LOWER-CASE INPUT ALPHABETICS TO UPPER-CASE BEFORE IT
;	SCANS ITS TABLE OF LEXICAL ITEMS FOR A MATCH. AS A RESULT
;	ALL LOWER-CASE ALPHABETICS ARE CHANGED TO UPPER-CASE
;	BEFORE FORDML GOES ON TO BUILD ITS OUTPUT TEXTS.
; 
;CURE
;

; 
;WARNING
; 
;	IN UNFLAGGED MODE, WHEN A LINE OF DML IS SPLIT ACROSS TWO
;	BUFFERS, PART OR ALL OF THE LINE MAY APPEAR IN LOWER-CASE
;	IN THE OUTPUT TEXT. THIS IS BECAUSE A GREAT DEAL OF TEXT
;	MAY BE INTERPOLATED IN ORDER TO CREATE THE EXTERNAL CALLS.
;	AS A RESULT, THE INPUT AND OUTPUT BUFFERS ARE NOT IN SYNC
;	AND TEXT WHICH WE MAY WISH TO CHANGE FROM LOWER-CASE TO
;	UPPER-CASE IN THE OUTPUT BUFFER MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN
;	WRITTEN OUT TO DISK. SINCE THE ONLY TEXT IN THIS CATEGORY
;	ERRONEOUSLY IS DML WHICH HAS BEEN COMMENTED OUT WITH AN

; 
;	IF A DBMS JOURNAL FILE ALREADY EXISTS ON THE USER'S
;	[P,PN], DBCS EXPECTS THAT IT ALREADY CONTAINS VALID

;	CLUDING A VALID LABEL PAGE NUMBER. WITH A PRE-ALLOCATED

;SYMPTOM:
; 
;	AN ABSTRACT OF A JOURNAL WITH TEXT ENTRIES DOES NOT CORRECTLY PRINT
;	ANY TEXT ENTRY WHICH IS LONGER THAN 80 ASCII CHARACTERS.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS:
; 
;	THE ROUTINE WHICH PRODUCES THE MESSAGES FOR SUCCEEDING BLOCKS OF THE

                             EDIT 571    FOR DBMS
  
;SYMPTOM:
; 
;	WHEN USING DBMEND TO DO THE FIRST OPEN ON A SYSTEM AREA WHICH
;	JUST BEEN CREATED BY THE SCHEMA PROCESSOR, DBMEND DOES NOT
;	CREATE THE SYSTEM RECORD AND INITIALIZE THE SETS WHICH IT OWNS.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS:
; 
;	DBMEND IN VERSION 5A DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT RECORDS AND SETS, EXCEPT
;	FOR THE AREA STATUS RECORD, AS IT ONLY KNOWS ABOUT DATA BASE
;	AREAS AND PAGES. SO, WHEN IT OPENS A NEWLY CREATED AREA, IT DOES
;	NOT KNOW THAT IT IS BEING EXPECTED TO CREATE THE SYSTEM RECORD
;	WHEN IT OPENS THE SYSTEM AREA. IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT
;	TO TEACH DBMEND ABOUT THE SYSTEM RECORD, AND BESIDES DBMEND
;	SHOULD NOT BE USED TO OPEN OR FORCEOPEN A NEWLY CREATED AREA.
;	RATHER, A USER-PROGRAMMED RUN-UNIT SHOULD BE DOING THIS INSTEAD.
;	SO, THE BEST APPROACH IS FOR DBMEND TO GIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE IF
;	IT IS USED IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCE. SINCE DBMEND DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT
;	RECORDS, WE CAN USE THIS FACT AS A BASIS FOR TESTING FOR THIS
;	ERRONEOUS USAGE.
; 
; 
;	HOWEVER, THE AREA STATUS RECORD HAS ALREADY BEEN FORMATTED IN THE
;	BUFFER AND THE BUFFER HAS ALREADY BEEN FLAGGED AS UPDATED BEFORE
;	THIS TEST IS MADE. AS A RESULT, THIS EDIT WILL NOT UN-DO THE
;	UPDATE BEING DONE BY DBMEND. IT WILL ONLY AVISE THE USER THAT HE
;	HAS INCURRED A PROBLEM. AS A RESULT, HE WILL HAVE TO GO BACK AND
;	RE-CREATE THE AREA AS INDICATED IN THE EXPLANATION OF ERROR-STATUS
;	CODE XX43 IN THE DBMS-10/20 PROGRAMMERS MANUALS.
; 
;CURE:
; 
;	INSTALL EDIT 571 IN ORDER TO DO THE APPROPRIATE CHECKING AND TO
;	HAVE DBMEND GIVE THE ?MNDACS ERROR MESSAGE IN THIS SITUATION.
; 
;	NOTE 1: THIS EDIT IS INSTALLED INTO THE DBSANY CODE WHICH IS USED
;	BY DBCS AND DBINFO, AS WELL AS DBMEND, FOR OPENING DATA BASE
;	AREAS. IT MAY BE INSTALLED INTO DBCS AND DBINFO WITH NO ILL
;	EFFECT BECAUSE DBCS AND DBINFO KNOW ABOUT RECORDS. BESIDES,
;	DBINFO ONLY OPENS THE DATA BASE IN USAGE-MODE EXCLUSIVE RETRIEVAL
;	AND DOES NOT UPDATE THE DATA BASE. ALSO, WHEN DBINFO ATTEMPTS
;	TO OPEN A NEWLY CREATED AREA, IT ALREADY GIVES THE ?INFAOE ERROR
;	MESSAGE.
; 
;	NOTE 2: THIS EDIT ONLY CAUSES DBMEND TO PRODUCE THE ?MNDACS
;	ERROR MESSAGE WHEN IT GETS INVOLVED IN THE INITIALIZATION OF A
;	DATA BASE AREA. IT DOES NOT INHIBIT FURTHER ATTEMPTS TO OPEN
;	THE AREA, EVEN WITHIN THE SAME RUN OF DBMEND. THUS, IT IS
;	EXPECTED THAT THE USER WILL TAKE DIAGNOSTIC ACTION ON THE BASIS
;	OF THE APPEARANCE OF THE ERROR MESSAGE ITSELF.

; 
;DIAGNOSIS
; 
;	THE CODE CHECKS THE ENTIRE SECOND WORD OF THE STRING ARGUMENT
;	TO SEE IF THE LENGTH EXCEEDS FIVE AND SETS IT TO FIVE IF IT
;	DOES.  HOWEVER, THE LEFT HALF OF THE WORD IS USED TO KEEP TRACK
;	OF OTHER ATTRIBUTES, SUCH AS WHETHER OR NOT THE STRING IS NUMERIC.
;	THE LENGTH OF THE STRING IS STORED IN THE RIGHT HALF ONLY.

;	EDIT 557 TO MODULE DBJOUR CHECKS A FLAG FOR THE JOURNAL-IN-
;	UNDEFINED-STATE WORD, AND IF AN ERROR RETURN WAS MADE FROM
;	A PREVIOUS DBCS CALL, INCLUDING FIND VERBS, IT REFUSES TO
;	PROCESS THE DBCS CALL, RETURNING A XX62 ERROR.
; 
;DIAGNOSIS:
; 
;	THE INTENT OF EDIT 557 WAS TO STOP SHARING UPDATERS TO A
;	DBSM-10/20 DATA BASE FROM DOING FURTHER WORK IN THE EVENT THAT
;	THE JOURNAL-IN-UNDEFINED-STATE WORD WAS FOUND TO BE SET WHEN
;	ENTERING A DML VERB. IT USES THE VALUE LEFT IN THE INTERNAL
;	DCBS EXCEPTION ID FIELD FROM THE PREVIOUS DML VERB AS THE
;	FLAG THAT NOT ALL IS WELL WITH THE JOURNAL AND THE DATA BASE.
;	HOWEVER, EDIT 557 IS TOO RESTRICTIVE BECAUSE IT FLAGS RETRIEVALS
;	AS BEING DANGEROUS AS WELL AS UPDATES. HOWEVER, THE CONTROL OVER
;	THE CONSISTENCY OF THE DATA BASE WHICH IS OFFERED BY THAT EDIT
;	SHOULD BE RETAINED IN THE CASE OF ALL DML UPDATES. THUS, THE
;	TWO DML VERBS "FIND" AND "GET" SHOULD BE MADE TO CLEAR THE
;	INTERNAL EXCEPTION ID FIELD WHEN THEY ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE DBCS,
;	EXCEPT IN CASES WHERE THE SUS BIT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY SET BY
;	A FAILED DML UPDATING VERB. IN SUCH CASES, THE RUN-UNIT ITSELF
;	MAY HAVE ALREADY CREATED SOME CORRUPTION AND IT SHOULD BE FORCED
;	TO TERMINATE. ACCORDINGLY, ONLY RUN-UNITS WHICH HAVE OPENED THE
;	DATA BASE FOR SOME FORM OF RETRIEVAL WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE
;	TO RUN.
; 
;CURE:
; 
;	INSTALL EDIT 576 FOR DBMS-10/20 V5A IN ORDER TO MAKE THEM CLEAR
;	THE INTERNAL EXCEPTION ID FIELD AS THEY ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE DBCS
;	IF THE SUS BIT IS NOT SET.
