What is the equivalent to SQL Server Transactions in DB2?

Question

What is the equivalent to the following SQL Server statements in DB2?

• Begin Transaction
• Commit Transaction
• Rollback Transaction

Answer 1

If you use an IDE like Intellij Idea (or others) then you don't have the possibility to start explicitely a transaction. In others words you cannot type 'begin transaction' in the console of your IDE.

But you can disable 'Auto-commit' (and reenable it later) and then type 'commit' or "rollback' into the console.

In IDEA there is also a button to 'commit' and a button to 'rollback'. Have a look to the screen dump attached.
