What is a resource manager?
A resource manager is a computer subsystem that owns and
manages resources that can be accessed and updated by applications (i.e., WMQ
queue manager – whose resources are its queues, DB2 database – whose resources
are its tables).
What is a unit of work?
When a application updates the resources of one or more
resource managers, it's often vital that all updates complete successfully as a
group, or none of them complete. Updates that complete this way are said to
occur within a 'unit of work' or 'transaction'.
What is a sync point coordinator?
The point in time when all updates within a unit of work
are either committed or backed out is called a 'sync point'. The computer
subsystem that manages units of work is called a sync point coordinator.
