4.10 Exception handling

OMI defines four categories of exceptions: those that a program might expect from its database operations, those related to the protocol itself, errors during session establishment, and errors from the virtual circuit. See 5.3.2 for details of error codes.

Some errors are fatal to OMI and require that a new session be established. When processing these fatal errors, the implementer may choose to maintain or to disconnect the underlying virtual circuit. In either case, the establishment of a new OMI session ensures that subsequent transactions are valid.
