Re: Enable or disable trigger while the file is in use.

I am not commenting on whether this used to be allowed, or whether it
should be allowed. I don't have that answer without doing some research.

I would like to point out an IBM solution that can be helpful for making
trigger modifications in a production environment. You can let your
environment gradually shift from using the old trigger to a new trigger
through the use of a QAQQINI option.

It's been available since 2015. Read more about it here.

It was 3+ years ago? that i wrote a trigger pgm(s) to a process.

It was a pita creating/removing triggers because the file was always in

use.

Then i found you can enable/disable existing triggers while the file was

in use.

At least i put some comments in a couple programs to that effect -

** You CANNOT Add or Remove triggers WHILE the file is in use **

** You may Disable or Enable triggers WHILE the file is in use ** And

recently i've found i CANT enable/disable triggers while the file is in use.

Question: Am i losing it or did IBM change something?

Thanks for any help.
