Goal

Provide information on why an XA recovery operation is not performed when a killed Tuxedo transaction management server (also known as TMS) process is restarting.

DESCRIPTION:

The XA recovery is performed when the first TMS of a group is booted. That TMS identified as the "distinguished" TMS is calling the xa_recover() function to retrieve the list of transaction branches from the RM.

Unfortunately that xa_recover() function call is not performed if that TMS was killed using

tmshutdown -k KILL
or
kill -9.
