Conflict Resolution Manager

Function of Conflict Resolution Manager:-

Concurrent managers read request to start concurrent programs running. The
Conflict Resolution Manager checks concurrent program definitions for
incompatibility rules.

If a program is identified as Run Alone, then the Conflict Resolution Manager
prevents the concurrent managers from starting other programs in the same
conflict domain.

When a program lists other programs as being incompatible with it, the Conflict
Resolution Manager prevents the program from starting until any incompatible
programs in the same domain have completed running.


If the Conflict Resolution Manager fails, the Internal Manager will restart the
Conflict Resolution Manager, or will process incompatibilities if the profile
option Concurrent: Use ICM is set to Yes.
