What is expected of your resource manager
If every request from the syncpoint manager prompts a meaningful response from
the resource manager, CICS ensures that changes to recoverable resources (such
as databases) can be synchronized. That is, either all the changes take effect or all
are backed out, even across system failures.
Limitations
Do not update a recoverable CICS resource during a syncpoint call because any
changes will not be seen by the CICS syncpoint manager.
Sample code for a TRUE invoked by the CICS syncpoint
manager
The pseudocode given in Figure 8 on page 296 is only an example. It is not
complete, and includes only some of the conditions that a task-related user exit
invoked at a syncpoint might be required to check.
