  • Coordinated handling of error codes and information describing errors in a commit procedure
    Patent number: 5165031
    Abstract: A computer system coordinates the handling of error codes and information describing errors in a commit procedure. The system supports a first resource manager of a first type and a second resource manager of a second type. An application is coupled to a sync point manager and initiates a two-phase commit procedure. The sync point manager is coupled to the first and second resource managers and coordinates the two-phase commit procedure involving the first and second resource managers. The sync point manager receives notification of a failure or failures relating to the first and second resource managers that prevent completion of the commit procedure and identification of the resource manager or resource managers associated with the failure or failures.
