Environment

CA-IDMS all supported releases.

Cause

This can be caused by having incomplete DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTIONs at shutdown which could not be resolved, probably because the related CVs were not active at the time.

Resolution

If this is the case, try starting up the related CVs and then startup the CV that failed with the 3937.
If this is not possible, restart the failed CV anyway and use DCMT DISPLAY/VARY DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION commands to remove them with BACKOUT or FORGET.
