DBEnvironment session. The statement is for DBA use in testing the
operation of rules.
Scope
ISQL or Application Programs
SQL Syntax
DISABLE RULES
Description
* DISABLE RULES turns rule invocation off in the DBEnvironment for
the current session or until the ENABLE RULES statement is issued.
* The statement only affects the current SID (session id). Other
users are not affected.
* The DISABLE RULES statement is not cumulative; issuing additional
DISABLE RULES statements will have no effect, and a warning will
be issued to this effect.
* Rules are not fired retroactively when the ENABLE RULES statement
is issued after the DISABLE RULES statement has been issued. That
is, if a DISABLE RULES statement is issued, rules that would
otherwise be applicable will not fire. Then, when a subsequent
ENABLE RULES is issued, applicable rules will fire again, but only
for subsequent data manipulation statements, not for those
statements executed while rule firing was disabled.
* COMMIT WORK and ROLLBACK WORK statements have no effect on whether
rules are enabled or disabled.
Authorization
You must have DBA authority.
