I'm not sure if our experience is relevant or not...

We have very few applications that use committment control. We had an issue with an application losing transactions. The clerks swore up and down that they had entered batches of transactions that 'disappeared.'

What was happening was the interactive session was running under committment control. And the user was 'signing off' by powering off their monitor.

When our backups ran, the file(s) couldn't be saved because there was an open committment pending. And our operator cancelled the interactive job, gave the backup a retry, and all was good.

And then the user complained about disappering transactions again. Yep. Cancelling the interactive job rolled back all of those transactions!
