Recovering Transactions for a Failed Clustered ServerIn the case of clustered servers, the recovery process is fairly automated. A server can perform recovery for another server while simultaneously processing its own transactions. Note also that, should the backup server die during the recovery process, recovery can be forwarded to another server. The following describes the sequence of events.
In addition, the following limitations apply: It is not possible to migrate the Transaction Recovery Service to a backup server from a running server. The server must be stopped before migration. Backup servers cannot accept new transactions for the failed server; they can only process old ones. Backup servers cannot process heuristic log files. Backup servers cannot process log records written by gateway implementations such as WebLogic Tuxedo connector. They can only process log records written by WebLogic server. |
