I belive the primary difference is that CIUPDATE=ON is a system-wide
setting, while CIUPDATE=ALLOWED is a procss-by-process setting. IOW, if the
flag is set to ALLOWED, then you have to ENABLE it in your program; other
programs that do not enable it will not have access to the feature.
At any rate, that's what I recall from the dim and distant days of training
people on the capability!
