Databases can record transactions in real time, which usually updates more thanone database in a distributed environment. This type of complexity can introduce many integrity threats, so the database software should implement the characteristics of what’s known as the ACID test. Which of the following are incorrect characteristics of the ACID test?

i. Atomicity – Divides transactions into units of work and ensures that all modifications take effect or none takes effect.
ii. Consistency – A transaction must follow the integrity policy developed for that particular database and ensure all data are consistent in the different databases.
iii. Isolation – Transactions execute in isolation until completed, without interacting with other transactions.
iv. Durability – Once the transaction is verified as inaccurate on all systems, it is committed, and the databases cannot be rolled back.

Which of the following best describes what should be enabled to make sure that this type of situation does not take place?
