We are not using IDMS in a Two-phase commit environment yet, but we are also asking the same questions. before I posted on the IDMS community, I searched and found this question.
(Did you have any replies frank?)
Has anyone made any progress on 2-phase commit?
Does anyone want to discuss any Gotchas or issues or problems to look for?
Several issues we are worried about are:
How do we cater for DBA processes: Journal recovery, in flight backups, journal auditing?
What happens when transactions are committed, but held "in-doubt".
Does the transaction runtimes become extended?
Thanks
Steve
