The restart data set declared in the Enterprise Database Server database is modeled as an SQL table in the Relational Design Center description, but it is not implicitly used in SQL as it is in Enterprise Database Server. Therefore, SQL applications that need to use the restart data set require different handling to work with SQL and Relational Design Center.

The application must explicitly modify the table that models the restart data set while in transaction state. When the application restarts, the contents of the table that models the restart data set reflect the data present at the end of the last completed transaction.

You can suppress the restart data set by using the Ignore option.
