Purpose

DSC (Disconnect) logs a session off the Teradata Database.

Usage Notes

  • Check the Return Code; if zero, the disconnect was successfully completed.
    • If the session has a pending request, a return code of 336 (request may be aborted) is returned to the application. The session is still logged off but the response is lost.
    • If there is an active transaction at the time of the DSC, the Teradata Database rolls back all work performed within that transaction prior to completing the logoff.
  • DSC should be used to clean up session context even if the connect was not successful (initial or final status).
  • In Two-phase commit mode, Disconnect ensures that the current session is aborted at syncpoint if the session has performed any uncommitted Teradata SQL requests.

DBCAREA Input Fields

Before using the Disconnect function, the application must set the DBCAREA fields in the first table and may optionally set those in the second table depending on the application's requirements.
